WHAT STANDARD TO YOU FEEL WILL BE THE EASIEST OF YOU TO
INCORPORATE INTO YOUR CURRICULUM AND WHY?
WHAT STANDARD DO YOU FEEL WILL BE A CHALLENGE FOR YOU AND WHY?

I feel that Create original works as a means of personal or group expression

will be the easiest standard to apply in my classroom since art naturally
lends itself to expression and creation.
I feel that it will be difficult for me to incorporate the standard of Develop
cultural understanding and global awareness by engaging with learners of
other cultures. I am not sure how with the time we have in the school year I
could get students to interact with other students who are also studying art.
I feel that it would take a long time for the students to begin discussing with
their pen pals and that this would have to occur over a long period of time.
