Employee Policy Handbook Part A: Kidzart Ouiz

The incorrect statement is "We are not supposed to raffle our drawings due to KidzArt copyright." This statement suggests that there is a restriction on raffling the drawings because of KidzArt copyright, which is not true. The other statements mention different criteria for selecting the child to receive the drawing, such as being the quietest, best behaved, or most helpful, but they do not contradict the practice of raffling the drawings.

The appropriate amount of time for the drawing demonstration should be between 10-20 minutes. This timeframe allows for a sufficient demonstration without being too long or too short. It gives enough time for the instructor to explain and demonstrate the drawing techniques effectively, while also allowing the students to practice and ask questions if needed. This duration strikes a balance between providing enough information and keeping the class engaged without becoming overwhelming or dragging on for too long.

At KidzArt we NEVER draw on a child's paper, and we never tell them which colors to use in their drawing. If a child asks you for help, ask them questons like "Well, what is your favorite color flower?" Or say, "Any color would be great; just pick the one you like best." Often they are looking for affirmation from you because they don't think they will pick the right color. If you give them encouragemnt to choose it, it leads to higher self-confidence.

If the behavior continues we may have to speak with their parents and have them take a break from KidzArt. Make sure to not sound aggressive when explaining this to them, because we don't want the students to react in a defensive way.

A reminder should not appear to be a reprimand. It may even be directed to the whole class if appropriate. You should not approach the student when doing this. A simple, "Janice and Maria, the rest of the class has started working." Or, "Class, it is important that we have everyone's attention so we can continue with our drawing."
Although the entire class may not be talking, the students that are talking will get the hint, without being embarrassed.

The correct answer is "cover it at all times while performing any type of KidzArt related business." This means that if someone has a tattoo, they should always keep it covered while engaging in any activities related to KidzArt. This is likely because KidzArt may have specific guidelines or policies regarding visible tattoos in order to maintain a professional appearance or to ensure that they do not offend parents or participants.

The correct answer is CI Home Page. This is because the question asks where information about CI meeting dates and locations can be found, and the CI Home Page is likely to contain this specific information. The other pages listed do not mention anything about CI meetings or locations, so they can be ruled out as options.

The correct answer is the New Hire Information Page. This page is likely to contain information about the requirements and locations for DOJ Fingerprinting, as it is relevant to new hires who need to undergo this process. The other pages mentioned may provide different types of information, but they are not specifically related to DOJ Fingerprinting.

The Art Term Glossary page/tab on the teachkidzart.com employee website provides information about art terminology. This page is specifically dedicated to defining and explaining different art terms, helping instructors to have a better understanding of the terminology they use in their classes.

The time on your whentowork is the time you must arrive, but the class always atarts 15 minutes after the time listed.

At the end of each class, the instructor should raffle off the demo drawing to a student. This is a way to engage the students and make them feel involved in the class. It also serves as a reward for their participation and hard work. Additionally, raffling off the drawing can create excitement and anticipation among the students, making the class more enjoyable and memorable.

The method that uses the words "eyes on me, mouth closed, ears listening, hands still, feet still" is the "Give Me 5" method. This method is an attention-getting strategy that teachers can use to quickly regain the attention of their students and get them focused on the lesson. By giving these specific instructions, the teacher is reminding students of the expected behavior and creating a structured and focused learning environment.

The correct answer is "We test kids on their knowledge of art terms." This answer is not one of the major elements of the KidzArt Brand because the other options mentioned in the question, such as the methodology/structure of the classes, building confidence, never repeating projects, and building problem-solving skills, are all key components of the KidzArt Brand. Testing kids on their knowledge of art terms is not mentioned as a major element, suggesting that it is not a significant focus of the brand.

The school locations sheets contain information like: school phone number, address, class time, etc.

KidzArt rules, lines and shapes, and the questions about copying should be covered at EVERY class. There is no exception to this rule.

You should immediately notify KidzArt. Such reports are necessary to comply with laws and initiate insurance and workers' compensation benefits and procedures.

Many kids will trickle in before class begins and you can take a few minutes to talk with those kids. If you show the kids that you are respectful when they have something to say, it teaches them to be respectful when you are talking. Teaching my modeling respectful behavior is much more effective than the "do as I say, not as I do" method.

Students can put down color like a crayon and rub with their finger or a tissue. They can use similar techniques for chalk pastels. Students can use a different finger for each color, then wash fingers as needed for each new color (if they don’t want to blend).

Students must smudge with their finger to get the desired effect. Have damp paper towels to clean fingers in between colors.

MAKE SURE TO CHECK THE FLOOR; the oil pastels can easily get ground into the carpet.

Bringing your cell phone to class is necessary because the KidzArt office may need to contact you regarding a student or you may need to report a missing student. This implies that there may be important and urgent situations that require immediate communication, making it essential to have your cell phone with you at all times during class.

The correct answer is to put on the KidzArt apron as soon as you arrive on school grounds and before you exit your car. This suggests that the apron should be worn at all times while on school grounds, indicating that there may be potential for mess or art-related activities throughout the day. Wearing the apron from the moment of arrival ensures that the teacher is prepared for any art-related tasks or projects that may arise.

The correct answer is "No, we offer new projects at every class". This answer implies that KidzArt does not repeat projects or drawings, but instead provides fresh and unique projects for every class. This ensures that students are constantly exposed to new and different art experiences, allowing them to explore various techniques, styles, and themes. By offering new projects at every class, KidzArt aims to keep their students engaged, inspired, and continuously learning.

To determine your schedule of classes for the upcoming week, you should visit the website whentowork.com or its variations such as www.whentowork.com, when to work, or whentowork. This website is likely a platform specifically designed for managing work schedules and it is recommended to visit it in order to access your class schedule for the following week.

Make sure you color with the markers and them put them away before starting on the charcoal element. Then use the charcoal to direct the background. Charcoal can be smudged with a finger or tissue. Try to work from left to right to reduce smudging.

KidzArt instructors do not have the freedom to choose which mediums to use for the projects each week. They are required to follow the medium posted on the curriculum guide provided by KidzArt.

The correct answer suggests that while it is not the usual policy to allow parents to sit in on KidzArt classes, an exception can be made if the parent would feel more comfortable sitting in on today's class. This response acknowledges the usual policy while also accommodating the parent's request.

USE BLACK CRAYONS (**These are not just regular black crayons, they are in a separate bag in your kit) to draw the outline directly on the sandpaper. Students will need to press HARD to make a good crisp black line.

When making name tags for a KidzArt class, it is important to include the child's name and their grade on the cards. This information helps in identifying each child and also ensures that they are placed in the appropriate group based on their grade level. Including the child's name and grade on the name tags helps in creating a more organized and efficient learning environment for the class.

KidzArt's policy on snacks in class is dependent on the permission of the classroom teacher. This means that if the teacher allows snacks, then it is acceptable for KidzArt. However, if the teacher does not permit snacks, then KidzArt does not allow them either.

If a parent is late to pick up their child from class, the option "Send the child to the school office" is not one of the options. This means that sending the child to the school office is not the appropriate action to take in this situation. The other options listed, such as calling the parent's cell phone, calling the KidzArt office, staying with the child until the parent arrives, and making arrangements for the child to go to afterschool care, are all possible actions that can be taken when a parent is late to pick up their child.

Students should color everything they want in marker first then use the soft chalk pastels for the rest. Markers should NOT be layered over top of chalk, this ruins the markers.

The correct answer is 30, 30 minutes, or 30 min. This is the amount of additional time that is added to your total time on WhenToWork for set-up and clean-up purposes.

The appropriate amount of time that should be left after demonstrating the drawing for the students to finish their details and color their drawing is 20-30 minutes. This allows the students enough time to add their own details and apply colors to their drawings. It gives them sufficient time to work on their artwork without feeling rushed or pressured.

Draw the complete picture as your warmup, then place the warmup under the banner then tape the banner to the mat. You can pre-tear 2 pieces of tape and gently stick on the side of the table by each child so they can do this when the time comes. Use sharpie on the fabric for the outline.

Be careful of smudging!

Pentel Fabric Fun is a non-toxic, fabric dyeing pastel set. These are bright, intense colors in soft stick form.

You can tell the parents if they wish to permanently set the project they can press with a hot iron. Once it has been heat set, the resulting design will dye permanent and wash fast.

Once you have their attention make some type of announcement.
here are some examples: I want to show you this shading technique
I want to tell you about next weeks drawing
I want to show you this curved line.

Warning: This should not be delivered across the classroom. Move close to the student and speak in a quiet voice as to not distract the entire class.Be firm, yet careful not to let your anger/feelings get the best of you. Although this is a warning, they are still a child and should not be yelled at, or made to feel helpless.

This statement suggests that teachers can effectively teach values to their students by embodying those values themselves. When teachers display qualities such as courtesy, promptness, enthusiasm, and control, they serve as role models for their students. By observing and imitating their teachers' behavior, students can internalize and adopt these values. This process of teaching values through personal example is known as modeling.

Have students fill in entire picture with watercolor pencils THEN add water to brush and go over pencil. We don't want them to put the pencils on wet paper as it will tear and dissolve the pencils.

The replacement cost of the Art Kit is $250. This means that if any of the art materials assigned to you are lost or damaged, you will be responsible for paying $250 to replace the entire kit.

KidzArt makes the first day of a new session stand out by coding the class name in red on the whentowork schedule. This color difference helps to easily identify and remember that a new session has started.

The correct answer is "At the top of your group of students" because the sentence states that your name, as the instructor, can be found on the roster to verify which group of students is in your class. This implies that your name will be located at the top of the list of students in your class, indicating that you are the instructor for that particular group.

Rosters are sent to you by 5:00pm the day before your class.

You should print one for the School Office, After School Care, and Yourself

After the first incident of disruption from a child, it is best to move the child somewhere they can concentrate better. This approach helps to create a more conducive learning environment for the child and allows them to focus on the activities at hand. It also prevents the disruption from affecting other children in the class. Calling the office or asking the child to leave KidzArt may be too extreme for a first incident and should be considered as a last resort if the disruptive behavior continues. Talking to the child after class and talking to the parent after class can also be done, but moving the child to a more suitable location should be the immediate action.

After the 3rd incident of disruption from a child, the appropriate action would be to call the KidzArt office and have a conversation with the parents. This suggests that the issue may require parental involvement or intervention to address the disruptive behavior. By involving the parents, the KidzArt office can work together with them to find a solution or implement appropriate disciplinary measures if necessary.

Please represent KidzArt in a professional manner. If you have any questions about what is appropriate please call the office.

KidzArt considers one absence in a month or one instance of tardiness in a month unacceptable behavior which may result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment.

If you are unable to avoid being late to work or unable to work due to sickness or other issues, you must contact the KidzArt office no later than 4 hours before the start of your shift.

PRO-ACTIVE is about being prepared and in control of the classroom. REACTION is about doing "this" because come kid did "that". These statements were switched in the last question and were therefore incorrect. The correct answer would be "Good Preparation gives the teacher time to be PROACTIVE.

All requests for time off must be made at least 2 weeks in advance and must be submitted through whentowork.com. This suggests that whentowork.com is the designated platform or system through which employees should submit their requests for time off. The other options, such as email to timeoff@kidzartca.com, teachkidzart.com, and email to HR director, are not mentioned as the appropriate channels for submitting time off requests. Therefore, whentowork.com is the correct answer.

This will help us to answer any questions that you have as a KidzArt CI.
