Kiss Clip
Art Goodbye
By Bonnie Meltzer
|
Treat artwork as you would any other
piece of
student work in any class—not just art.
Don’t provide students with the
finished
product to put their names on and turn in as their own.
Provide
them with the opportunity to create their own art to
illustrate
their projects.
