Maybe you’re asking yourself, “Where are all the odd numbered podcast episodes?” Well, for now, the odd numbered episodes are audio versions of older, but very popular blog posts, so I’m not creating another blog post for them. You can find links to all of them on our Anyone Can Teach Art podcast page
Here’s the Highlights of Episode 6:
- Separate your media & only put out one type per week
- Have a home for the supplies on the off days / off season
- Make a chart of 6 weeks of art projects
- Quality vs. price
- “Student grade” (my favorite brands of art supplies)
- Quality makes you more likely to keep it later
- Printer paper: at least 24 lb
- What teachers/parents can do with finished art
- Create a Portfolio
- Take photos
- Trash / recycle
Things We Mention in Episode 6:
- Ridge Light Ranch blog post Organizing Art Once and For All
- Oversized Portfolio ($10-15 on Amazon.com or Blick.com)
