Whats the optimal strategy for maintaining a habitat?

Making sure the materials that students use fit their small and large
motor abilities
o Allowing the students to create what has meaning to them and being
open to the unknown outcome.
Keeping Students Engaged:
o By allowing them to create artwork for personal reflection

o By giving them the ability to make choices and problem solve for
themselves.

ASSESSMENT STRATEGIES (both formative and summative)With this class being online, it is hard to really get substantial
formative assessments. I am able to see what they are thinking and the
steps students take by reading and responding to their blogs. How the
student receive points is if they hit the word count and stay on topic for their
discussion board writings and explanations of what they did that week. If
they do both of these tasks, 100% is awarded to the students.
When students complete The Art Assignment, they will be graded on if their
project followed the objectives within in the video and if their blog was on
topic and met the word count minimum.
For their final Habitat Project they will be graded over this Rubric:
Lastly, students are graded on responses to their peers and giving evidence
why they think the way they do. If I did not give students points for this task,
very little students would look at their peers work and the sense of
community would be lessened.
EXEMPLARS:
[Images of different things students could do. Still a work in progress, but a
starting point for students to expand upon. These examples are from
previous students and my exemplars created for them.]

Who Am I?
Please answer at least 8 of the following questions. Then create 2 more questions that you also
think need to be answered.
Who am I? How do others see me? Who do I want to become? Who can I
imagine myself to be? What are characteristics of me? What do others
think of me? Do the people I hang out with say something about me? Does
my culture say things about me? What about the clothes I wear? Am I
religious? Do I want to be? Do I think for myself or do I just repeat what I
hear/read? Would I change my identity if I could? Am I happy with who I
am? Should I strive to be something different?
-
For each of the questions you ask, ask yourself why multiple times.
o So, after you first answer the question ask yourself Why? then write down that
answer. Then ask Why? again and record that answer. Ask yourself Why? at
least four total times. Really try to think why you answered the way you did.
o Points will not be given for I dont know answers or something similar.
