Digital Girl… based on Madonna’s Material Girl
Some kids miss me
Some kids ping me
I hope they’re all ok
When they don’t check the Google Classroom
I’ll email them anyway
They can ask and they can share
I hope they understand (that’s right)
‘Cause this teaching online thing is rough
as we make it up each day
‘Cause we are living in a digital world
And I am a di-digital girl
You know that we are living in a digital world
And I am a di-digital girl
So here we all are… teaching from home feeling isolated… missing our daily interactions with the little humans we call our kids. Trying to build an airplane while flying it and hoping we all don’t die. Trying to remember to put on our own oxygen mask before the ones of those around us. Alternating between scared, angry, bored and occasionally enjoying some time to make art ourselves. Meanwhile teachers online are generously sharing their work with each other. So here is my share.
Digital Art Bingo: This unit works the same as my other bingo’s, so the kids were already familiar with the format. 25 choices, 3-4 weeks do 5-7 of the options, try to get a bingo. Since it is all digital, they upload their finished art to our Artsonia Gallery for me to ‘grade’ (yeah, we aren’t grading anything.) So here are some resources if you want to try this out yourself!
