QUALITY STANDARD II
Teachers establish a safe, inclusive and respectful learning environment for a diverse population of students.
ELEMENT A
Teachers foster a predictable learning environment characterized by acceptable student behavior and efficient use of time in which each student has a positive, nurturing relationship with caring adults and peers.
REASONING STATEMENT
I chose to share this picture of this particular student's artwork and artist statement because he talked about how his project was very personal and expresses some very deep emotions. He not only felt comforatble to share his artowrk with his peers but with his teacher, and with me and in writing the artist statement I had assigned him. During my lesson, I made sure that students were respectful and understood the bravery it takes for the some of their peers to share what they did with the class
