As a middle school TAB teacher, when I think of all of the teaching I do throughout the day the majority of it isn’t teaching art. Sure, I use art as a medium to teach the 8 SHoM’s. However, those translate to everyday life no matter what profession. I use art to teach students how to think and view the world through multiple lenses. I teach students how to put trust in themselves and own their quirks. I teach students how to redirect their energy into something more productive. I teach students how to learn based off of their interests while filtering out false information. I teach students to believe in themselves when seemingly no one else does(I always believe in them but they don’t always see that right away). I give them pointers and run demos but in the grand scheme of things “art” is such a small percentage of the actual teaching that I do in the day.

Mr. Kelly BeachAs an art teacher, it is my goal that every student will leave my classroom with transferable skills that will allow them to be successful in whatever career path they choose. It is my mission to teach students to make careful observations of the world around them, find problems that need to be solved, envision a solution, and engage and persist through the problem solving process while constantly reflecting on their work and progress. Students are enabled to embrace their strengths and interests while sharing their own skills and ideas with their classmates. Through a Teaching for Artistic Behavior process, students embrace leadership positions and become teachers themselves. I feel that it is my job to encourage students to take risks, step outside of their comfort zone, explore new possibilities, and express their individual view of the world through the art making process.
