Managing A High School Art Room
MATT Christensen
San Fransico, CA
One of the biggest challenges I face is high-energy, off-task behavior. I expect each class to start off focused and end focused. At CAT, we call these “Strong Start” and “Focused Finish.” Often, especially when instruction is over a few minutes, keeping every student engaged and focused on the discussion/slideshow at the front of the room is challenging.
