Some of you may have seen your 1st through 5th grade artists coming home with labels that say "Ask me how I...." similar to the positive stickers but these are only for art class. I briefly introduced the Studio Habits of Mind to grades 1-5 and will refer to them throughout the rest of the school year. The 8 studio habits are listed below. We talk about how there are certain behaviors of an artist or creator and if they are exhibiting those behaviors through their work, I acknowledge what I see and then give them a sticker to encourage another conversation about it with someone else. My goal is to dive much deeper into the studio habits next year but want my artists to have some understanding of what they are and when they might be used. I also try to emphasize that these habits are now just related to art, they can be applied to so many areas of life. If you see one of the stickers on your child's shirt, be sure to have a conversation about him/her and why they were given the sticker!
