Each time students enter class, a warm-up slide is presented on the board created in Google Slides. This warm-up slide becomes a routine for students- they are able to understand events for the day as well as begin on a warm up that prepares their brains to transition into art class.

Slides created in Google also aid in presenting information on techniques being practiced in class for that day. Slides are kept on the board for students to easily reference what they are practicing throughout class.

Google classroom pages for each class (different grade levels and block periods) are created, where students can access class materials, weekly agendas, and classroom expectations. In this particular class, students were asked which materials they were posted excited to work with as a survey, allowing the instructor to gage student interest as well as make sure each student was able to successfully use the platform.
