While observing for the second time at location A, the students were starting a new project making monster sculptures our of clay. Their assignment today was to do two thumbnail sketches of their monster idea. They did their thumbnail sketches on a worksheet, they were told to color in the one that they liked the most. There were some really wonderful, creative sketches. They had to incorporate some body parts and features while others were optional. They used their chrome books for references to their monsters. When walking around the room this time, I got a chance to look at some of the finished projects from the eight grade class and noticed that their rubrics included two sections, one being the student's score (what grade or the amount of points the students would give themselves) and the next being the teacher's score (what their actual grade is). I really liked that idea, that's something my middle school art teacher did as well and I feel like sometimes it can really boost students' self-confidence as well as teach the students how to self-evaluate.
