Permanent Marker Rules

When my students use permanent markers I give them the following rules:
1. Do not draw on eachother.
2. Do not draw on yourself.
3. Do not draw on another's paper or clothing.
4. Do not draw on the table.
5. All you draw on is your paper!!!

Directions Flow Chart

In art sometimes there are several steps to a project. Yes we can try to break it up, but if the steps are small already you can ask your students to make a directions flow chart to keep at their seat. This way they have both gone over the directions by hearing them, writing them, and seeing them. This gives students more independence.
