To commemorate the end
of our practicums we, as the elementary second-year cohort, organized an art
show to display and bring light to any fine arts that we taught in our
practicum classes. The students and
their families were invited to see their pieces of art on display and come
visit the campus.
The process of
planning the art show began before practicum and when we had been sleeping a
few more hours a night. At the beginning
planning seemed to start well, we separated ourselves into committees. There were four committees: The decorating
committee, the media committee, the welcoming committee and the wonderful clean
up committee. After we had gathered in
our committees and devised a course of action for what our committee was
responsible for, we dispersed into practicum.
After practicum we reconvened into our committees and presented what we
had planned and got started executing the plan to make it as successful as we
hoped.
I had the pleasure of
being part of the decorations committee.
We came up with the theme/title “Falling into Winter.” We felt this would suit the art show
fabulously because most of lesson would have been fall themed, as that was
season we were in during our practicum and at the time of the art show we
assumed that winter would have graced us with her presence. We envisions leaves and snowflakes intermingled
through out the show and was able to pull it off due to the committee chair
saving a big garbage bag full of leaves.
Each display had a basket of real fall leaves on their table and there
were snowflakes dangling and floating through out the entire art space. After seeing everything put together and all
the art displayed I was very thankful for the opportunity and for the
organizing of the committees. It helped
to ensure the responsibilities were not only left to a few people. Everyone had his or her roles in making the
art show a success, and to me the teamwork was also gratifying. Thank you to all my peers with making the
time something to remember.
