My students are a fun, energetic group of young people. Our school is downtown and comprises of kids who are from middle class families to very poor. They come from diverse backgrounds and ethnicity's. They feel a sense of family at our school and often hang out after school as long as they can. The art room is a place where they can express themselves and really appreciate the experiences they get to have. We are very limited in money for supplies, but do the best we can. Technology has also been a long process for us to get, but we recently got LCD projectors installed and the students are enjoying the visual experience we are having, but now I'd like to see their experience enhanced with the enlarged view of the materials being demonstrated. When given the time I do mini demos at each of the students' tables (this can be time consuming) and I love to see their eyes light up when they understand and see up close the process and the magic that happens.
