Guests: Rain Smith, School Library Media Specialist, & Emily Litsey, Art Teacher From: Whiteland Community High School, Indiana Grade(s) Taught: 9, 10, 11, 12 Resources: 2D AP Art Critiques/Writing: About the Course: https://apstudents.collegeboard.org/courses/ap-2-d-art-and-design Sample Portfolios & Scoring Info: https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/courses/ap-2-d-art-and-design/portfolio/past-exam-questions "How to Help Students Make Original Meaningful Art" by Abby Schukei - We use these cards in the early stages of planning because they have sentence stems that are helpful as they plan their sustained investigation topics. I also refer back to them throughout the year if students are struggling with their written statements. Conference form that Emily uses when she meets with AP students throughout the year. When Rain and I do our collaboration, it is loosely based on this document, but we take a more freewheelin' approach. :D It's helpful to have on hand as a reference to make sure certain points are being addressed, then teachers can see where the conversation goes.

Guest: Elizabeth Dickerson, Library Assistant From: New Hampshire Grade(s) Taught: K, 1, 2, 3, 4 Resources: Mad Libs with word bank bins: When my second graders learned about parts of speech, they became obsessed with Mad Libs but the words they came up with weren't usually very creative so after reading another story about bathrooms, I decided to make word bank bins- a bin full of nouns, one of verbs, and one of adjectives.
