Taryn and Amanda's Lesson



I really thought this was such a great lesson.  I was so intrigued by the idea of mark making and using it as a theme for multiple lessons, however I always get confused when they refer to it as mark.  I always want to say who is mark?  The best part of the lesson was that it was innovative they broke the normal way everyone has been teaching and made it more interesting.  By getting the class involved and moving as soon as the class started I was excited.   That excitement carried over to the discussion and was built upon in the actual making process.  Although my favorite part of the lesson was when we collaboratively threw the clay.  It was fun and exciting as well as informative.  I even tried to replicate this lesson in Alice's disabilities class with my student who has autism and down syndrome, although he was not interested.
