Ep. 067 - It Wont Always Be Perfect

Mistakes are a part of artmaking, but it can be difficult to explain that idea to our students--especially our kids who want everything to be perfect. It is important to help kids find the joy in art and teach kids to learn from their mistakes. In this episode, Cassie shares some ideas for doing so. She discusses how to talk about growth mindset with your students, drawing exercises and activities that guide students toward success, and why you need to demonstrate a few mistakes and show what to do with them.  Resources and Links The Growth Mindset Coach The Dot by Peter Reynolds Beautiful Oops by Barney Saltzberg How to Help Your Students Overcome Mistakes
