Standard 1:
Demonstrates mastery of and pedagogical expertise in content
Artifact One: Personal Timeline Lesson Plan: This lesson plan directly relates to the standard, because it is a lesson plan written for a fiber arts class. This reflects my knowledge on my content, art, because not only does it contain step by step demos for basket weaving and frame loom weaving showing the knowledge necessary for the artmaking, but also contains a history lesson on weaving and basketry in Africa, revealing the expertise on the history of the subject.
I chose this artifact because it proficiently reflects my knowledge on the subject, contains personal work that shows my ability in the artmaking, and also the skills necessary to break down the artmaking into do-able steps. Finally, it contains steps and content for students to ideate before beginning their work, reflecting my ability to connect my knowledge to the success of my students' learning.

Artifact Two: Whose Art is it Anyway Lesson Plan: I decided on using this lesson plan that incorporates the "Zoom In" learning strategy from Making Thinking Visible in order to teach three main art movements and how to identify them. I felt like this would be a great artifact for Standard 1, because it reflects my personal knowledge on art history, even specific art movements, artists within the movements, and how to identify over arching themes within the movements and with specific artists. I also teach the students how to do the same, and identify these three art movements in history. The lesson displays my expertise in art history.
