CURATORS
PREPARE ART AND HANG IT For Wednesday lessons, hang on the following Thursday or Friday of lesson week. For Friday lessons, hang on the following Monday or Tuesday. It is okay to curate during class. Just be respectful of classes being taught in the MUR. Shhh!
TO OPEN THE CUPBOARDS Sign the key out from Jennifer Cushing in the office.
WHERE'S THE ART? The cabinet beneath the large construction paper organizer under the proper grade.
MOUNT THE ART Use construction to back the Art. The paper is found on the counter by the supply cabinets. Choose whichever color(s) work best to set off the projects. Use glue sticks (found in 1-H). There are also mounting squares and tape in 1-C.
LABEL THE ART Use the classroom labels that will be found with the art. IMPORTANT! Do not put the labels directly on the art piece. Label the construction paper. For un-mountable (3D type art) use an index card for the label (index cards are in a shoebox in 1-B). Tape the index card onto the art or pin next to it on the wall.
REMOVE LAST MONTH’S ART Place in the classroom’s ART SHOW bins located under the counter next to the door.
POST THE ART In the hallway next to the classrooms. 8th, 5th & 3rd are posted to the LEFT of the doors. 7th, 6th, 4th and 2nd are posted to the RIGHT. Kindergarten is posted on the left wall off of the main hallway in the connecting hallway. 1st grade is to the right of the Teacher’s Lounge.
Use push pins for most pieces. If there is too much art for the cork strips, use the 2-way sticky mounting squares to post the art on the wall.
LOCK THE CUPBOARD TIGHTLY
