Studio Principles Drawing Assignment
In Chapter 6 of 30 Kids, 1 Sink we discuss the importance of including young artists in an active discussion of Studio Principles guiding community conduct in the art room. We show 3 examples of student drawing what they think it means to care for each other in the Art Studio, based upon the broad guiding principles agreed upon as a class. We showed three examples. Here are additional examples.


A Kindergarten artist illustrates a classroom behavior, “use teamwork”

A second grade artist illustrates a classroom behavior, “make friends”

A second grade artist illustrates a classroom behavior, “speak your truth”

A third grade artist illustrates a classroom behavior, “raise your hand”
