~Art Class~ My daughter is offering a crystals and geodes class for the family. We have a family tradition of offering classes to each other. I am not sure how it started but we’ve been doing this for many years. There have been Lego build, origami, mathart, and art classes prepared and presented by the kids.

The key to an engaging lesson is maintaining true to interactive “hands-on” learning. I use pictures, sticky notes for labels and virtual math manipulative that can be moved around to help the student make meaning of the concepts. Just like my homeschool lessons or in-person lessons, I like to ask questions as I guide the students through activities.

We started a weekly artist study. I set out materials to start the day with art and it set the tone for lessons the rest of the week. I found ways to incorporate more hand-on active learning during history and read loud. Thanks to @blossomandroot for creating preparing a diverse group of artists to study.
