Balance and Symmetry Text-Set
This artifact is a table of contents from a text-set I created on balance and symmetry in art. It was created as an assignment for Literacy in the Content Area (EDU 305). Text-sets are a collection of trade books, textbook selections, articles, movies, photos, poems, quotes, songs, websites and more that work together to offer a multi-faceted perspective of a topic. The contents of a text-set are selected to cover a spectrum of reading levels.
Danielson's Domain #1: Planning and Preparation, involves demonstrating knowledge of learning processes, designing instruction suitable for diverse learners, and gathering materials from a variety of resources. The text-set is a tool for addressing all of these aspects of instruction. Teachers building a text-set must be conscientious of the artifacts' reading-levels and the spectrum of reading levels present in his or her classroom. While I was building this text-set on balance and symmetry, I sought to include articles, textbooks, pictures, and websites that would spark my students' curiosity while challenging the under-performing reader and the gifted reader alike.
