Open Studio Time and Arts Integration Collaborative Planning Provides Opportunities for Teachers to Develop and Implement Impactful Arts Integrated Lessons for Rosewood Students
Arts integration, the practice of merging the arts with other content areas during lessons is an impactful way to teach. As a Certified Arts In Basic Curriculum School, Rosewood believes that the arts are basic to every child's education. Providing collaborative planning and open studio sessions provides teachers with the support to develop and implement arts integrated lessons.
Rosewood's first grade teachers (Ms. Slack, Ms. Sweetland, and Ms. Usher) collaborated with Ms. Carson, the art teacher, to create and implement an arts integrated unit focusing on the study of animals and their habitats. Science and Art merged to create an effective and engaging unit. Students here are seen painting a habitat that supports a specific animal they researched.
Ms. Smith, a third-grade teacher, collaborated with Ms. Carson to create cave art part of a interdisciplinary study of Brazil. Students here are seen painting rock art in preparation for a third grade multicultural English language arts unit of study.
Ms. McFall and Ms. Floyd, included arts integrated lessons in their studies of Mexico and China. Students created sugar skulls, Josefina dolls, Chinese clay warriors, and Chinese ink paintings.
Working together on collaborative projects enriches our students experiences in all content areas.
The Richland One Elementary Art Exhibit is underway! It is being held at the Koger Center from now until April 8th. Several Rosewood students have won awards at the art show. Rosewood’s gallery is located in the second-floor gallery (across from the elevators).
Our first congratulations goes to Simon Fowler whose artwork was selected to join Rosewood’s Permanent Art Collection. This is a prestigious award. Simon’s art will be professionally framed and then be displayed in a district office for a year. After that it will be returned to Rosewood where it will be hung in our school permanently. Simon will be recognized at a celebration on April 8th.
In addition, we want to congratulate the following students who won ribbons at the exhibit.

Ethan Powers, 1st Place

What is BIC?
BIC stands for Boys in Charge! BIC is a great opportunity for boys to bond and improve on SEL skills with peers. The Rosewood BIC/Boys In Charge enjoyed a field trip to Heyward Career & Technology Center and lunch at Wendy’s. We were given a tour of the campus and demonstrations/information on each career opportunity offered at the center. We even spoke to a Rosewood Alumni that is a student at the center. Each BIC member was given a gift. We thank the Rosewood Foundation for our t-shirts, you are greatly appreciated. A special thank you to Mr. Brown and Ms. Franklin for your support!
