Class: 1Ealaín– 4.1
Time: 10:20 – 11:40         (double period)
Date:  01/10/18
School: Coláiste Choilm (GaelCholáiste)
Mentor: Emilie Doyle

Due to the majority of the class being absent from a school related activity, choir practice, the previous class, the co-operating teacher decided not to move on to cross contour until the rest of the class had caught up. We won’t move on to cross contour drawing until next week. I found this to be a very good idea, it allows for the pupils who missed out on the last class to catch up. This means that all students have the same opportunity to progress. The co-operating teacher decided this would be a opportunity for peer teaching. The students who were present in the previous class thought their peers what had occurred in the previous class. There some giddiness from the students while they were teaching, which was to be expected. Once all pupils had caught up they continued to do contour line drawings. Some students have difficulty remembering that there is no shading involved with contour drawing. This is when the co-operating teacher decided to put up the PowerPoint presentation on contour drawing to remind the pupils what is involved with contour drawing.

Welcome to my PME blog. Within this space, I will reflect on the shadowing period of my teaching practice, which follows me in my preparation towards taking my classes alone. I will discuss workshops that take place in the Crawford College, where I can experience the methods of art making that my pupils will experience, seeing through the eyes of both student and teacher. I will also bring my experience from UCC, in which I will reflect on the teaching methodologies that I will use in my own teaching practice. With this blog, I hope to map my progress of this year, and to show the growth that has occurred in both my artistic and teaching practice through the experiences from UCC and the Crawford College.

Class: 1Art – 1.2 Time: 09:00 – 10:20    (double period) Date:   03/09/18 School: Coláiste Choilm Co-operating teacher: Mary O’Mahony This class was part of an observation/ team teaching experience. The class started with an introduction to the class that I will be teaching. In this class the learning outcome that was addressed was Drawing 1.4 , demonstrate how they use drawing to observe, record and analyse the human figure and the world around them. The class was continuing from the last class with Blind Contour drawing. The students were told for this exercise they must remember three things, not to look at the page, to keep the pencil/pen on the page and that this exercise is to work on hand to eye co-ordination. The objective of this exercise is to practice the element of line, the shape and the line of the object. The class then continued onto Continuous line drawing. The co-operating teacher then showed the students a video of an artist completin...

Class: 1Art – 1.2 Time: 09:00 – 11:40         (double period) Date:   10/09/18 School: Coláiste Choilm Mentor: Mary O’Mahony The class began with the co-operating teacher getting the class to recall what had been done in the previous class. The class answered what they had done and she left the photocopies of the blown up blind drawings for the students to collect. The co-operating teacher then explained that today that they were going to be transferring their drawing onto a sheet in their sketchbooks Two pupils, who were absent, from last week’s class had to catch up with the rest of the class. I explained what had been done last week i.e. the blind drawings and the tracing of the blind drawing of choice of the pupils. The rest of the class, once they had received their blind drawings drew a frame around the photocopy as close to the drawing as possible. They then turned the drawing around (blind drawing facing away from the pupil...
