WHAT IS CONTEXTUALIZATION?
• Contextualization is employing the items of the language in a meaningful and
relevant context. This helps the learners to acquire new skills and knowledge.
CONTEXTUALIZATION
Resourcefulness and self-expression are some of the skills that can be developed through art
practice and creation, especially in elementary students.
Contextualizing the art materials based on what is needed and available is part of the creative
art process.
good art is flexible, arbitrary, and spontaneous.
If the teacher can make the lesson more relevant to the students if they use everyday themes or
materials that they can relate to.
EXAMPLES
Level 1 (Top)
Uses oil pastels to outline and create a barrier between the colors.
Level 2 (Bottom) Uses only pencil for outline.
TIME MANAGEMENT
Art production can be very time-consuming. It takes time to set up and clean up.
Sometimes when you are in the zone or when they are engaged, your kids even lose
track of time.
If you notice that a student is working slower than the rest, it is best to point out what
parts are taking so long.
EAMPLE
A STUDENT TAKES A LONG TIME TO PERFECT THE DRAWING OF THE SHAPE OF THE FACE.
Teacher should…
1. Tell him it is okay for it to be not perfect.
2. Help him find a way to make it perfect.
3. If it is really taking so long you can do it for him but only on that specific part.
Position yourself in a space where you can see all students and all students can see you.
Seeing arrangement and classroom layout are also important because these dictates
how students interact and share materials.
EXAMPLE
DEMO TABLE
A teacher needs a demo table to put his or her materials.
WORK AREA/STUDENTS’ SEATING ARRANGEMENT.
Students should have ample workspace. Ideally, a long table that is waterproof should
be used.
STATIONS TO MAKE YOUR ART ROOM MORE MANAGEABLE
You can lay out the room with designated areas. Wash area, drying wash area, materials
are, work area and arts display area.
