I have posted before about Gallery Walks, but I truly use them all the time. Here is a 40 second video of what a gallery walk IS and what it is NOT for your students. It was a lot of fun to make. If you would like to see other post about gallery walks, please click here.
I love doing gallery walks! The kids like to see what their classmates are doing and find some inspiration for themselves if they need it! :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your video clip! I've been doing gallery walks in my artroom for the past 6 or 7 school years now. I like the idea of kids having their hands behind their back, I'll have to remember that because we know that they always want to touch what they are looking at!
ReplyDeleteDo you have any other components you incorporate during the gallery walk? Sometimes I ask the kids to freeze, and look at the closest piece of art to them. Then I ask them questions to respond to about that persons artwork. It is nice to have a verbal & positive critique to share with one another.
