Assessment:
The students will be sharing their sketches/thumbnails before class ends and get feedback on what can be improve, by sharing with a partner that isn’t in the same table but a different table.
When they have finished with their design on the second day, they will do a gallery walk to see everyone’s work and write down what they was successful about everyone and what can be improved.
I will ask for a written reflection and response to the project. What they liked, felt was successful and what could be improved.

Teaching Artist Reflection:
1. I am worried that some students won’t understand this kind of project because they are not use to it. I am worried that the students won’t be able have time in 2 days.
2. I think this project is helping the students be creative and chose what they want. That is the point of my practice for my teaching.
3. The students will be sharing their stickers with family or friends because they are getting more than one copy of their design.
How I will receive my teaching methodology and quality of the student work is by asking what I can improve by Ms. Lor and Ms. Claire, another art teacher that was added this year, and students for opinions or improvements when we all go around checking our Design.
