每位新入职的美术教师，都曾经历过第一次踏入前任教师留下的美术教室时的那一刻。前任教师留下了什么？在美术教育世界的“纳尼亚”——储物柜里——又能找到哪些材料？！
也许前任教师是个囤积癖（本人有罪）。
又或许是个A型人格的超级整理控（本人无罪）。
又或者，你很幸运，正要开启一所全新学校和全新的美术课程。
我于2015年搬到一个新州，并在此过程中更换了任教年级。我仅通过电话就接受了新职位，对实际情况一无所知。怀着期待与焦虑，我走进了全新的教学空间：第一周上课所需的材料，我是否都已备齐？万一发现亮片和活动眼睛该怎么办？
我为五年级学生设计的第一批美术课之一，便是这些“表情面具”。该课程融合了我熟悉且热爱的两大元素——雕塑与文化，并充分利用了我在有限预算下所能获取的材料。新学校的优秀保洁员们为我送来了大量纸板箱，它们曾分别装过教科书、卫生纸，还有“土豆笑脸”（没错，就是学校食堂供应的那种印着笑脸的薯条……）。而前任教师留下的油画棒，则为这些浮雕式雕塑注入了色彩。
执教这一学段带给我的最初喜悦之一，便是看到10–11岁的孩子毫无社会偏见顾虑地讨论毕加索与非洲艺术。若想以全新视角欣赏艺术，请让十岁孩子来观察并描述一件抽象作品——这真令人鼓舞！
这些纸板雕塑成本极低，却能创造大量联结艺术史与文化的教学契机，同时让学生以动手实践、高度投入的方式进行艺术创作。

请观看我的分步YouTube教学视频： 这些视频非常适合作为技法导入与复习工具。有没有人和我一样，每天重复讲解同一概念六遍后精疲力竭？而学生那句令人头疼的“昨天我请假了，到底讲了什么？”，也只需用这些可视化指南轻松化解！

Every new art teacher can relate to the first moment they walk into their inherited art room. What did the former teacher leave behind? What supplies will be found in the Narnia of the art education world: THE SUPPLY CLOSET?!
Maybe the previous teacher was a hoarder (guilty). Or a type A super organizer (not guilty). Or maybe you are the lucky teacher who gets to open a brand new school and art program.
I moved to a new state in 2015 and changed grade levels along the way. I accepted my new position over the phone and had no idea what to expect. I walked into my new space filled with anticipation and anxiety. Will I have what I need to survive the first week of school? What do I do if I find glitter and googly eyes?
One of my first attempts at teaching 5th grade art are these Expressive Masks. It incorporated what I knew and loved, sculpture and culture, with materials I had access to with my limited budget. The fabulous custodians at my new school brought me cardboard boxes formally containing text books, toilet paper and potato smiles (you know, the smiley face potato fries school cafeterias serve…) Oil pastels left behind from my predecessor brought the color to these relief sculptures.
One of my first joys of this grade level was watching 10-11 year old kids discussing Picasso and African art without the fear of social stigma. If you want to see art in a new way ask a ten year old to make observations about an abstract artwork. Inspiring.
These cardboard sculptures are super cheap, create so many opportunities to connect to art history and culture, and allow students to create art in a hands-on and engaging way.
