UDL Worksheet: Engagement, Representation, and Expression (Kid's Mental Health). Fall/Autumn.
By Art Shack by JB
This U.D.L. & Conferencing .pdf file is designed to be printed and copied for your students to use while assessing their assignment. Feel free to tweak a couple things for yourself to match your own lesson. I had students use this U.D.L. Checklist Worksheet to focus on Engagement, Representation, and Expression throughout the lesson. I hope you and your kiddos love this! Enjoy.
Art Labels: displaying artworks.
By Art Shack by JB
These creative Art name tags were designed to be printed, cut apart, and attached to your student’s amazing artworks. These name tags have a line designated for the student’s name, type of artwork it is, and grade level of the student. Using these name tags makes it easy for handing back artworks to students after the art is displayed in an art gallery, art museum, and/or art show. As an elementary art teacher, I enjoy different color name tags for different grade levels, so I have created 6 unique color palettes per grades K-5th grade. I hope this helps! Enjoy.

RIZZ RHYTHMS - A Gen-Alpha Rhythm Game!
By Jason Litt
I know what you're all thinking, but if you can't beat them, join them?
Gen Alpha's slang, which you've probably heard from your older kids is sweeping the nation uncontrollably, but why not turn it into a decipher and decode lesson?
In Rizz Rhythms, students will see their Gen-Alpha slang on the powerpoint slides and will have to decipher the rhythm using triplets, eighth note pairs, and quarter notes. The rhythm will be shown on the animation on the next slide.
You can either have the students notate it out on whiteboards...
make rhythm cards or tiles
have them write it on the board
make it a race between A team vs B team to spell it out
or however you can imagine
Although this may be cringe, you're sure to be a sigma after this one ;) 20 rhythm for all your kids -- BUSSIN!
First Day of School "Art Talk"

Product includes: - Comprehensive Lesson Plan - "Art Talk" Sheet for students to fill out - 6 Corresponding "Art Quote" signs to hang up around your room Though I utilize this product on the first day of school, it really can be used all year long.
