As an art teacher, I am fortunate to get to share creativity and excitement about the world with my students everyday. This year I will be teaching at two different elementary schools with varied supplies and resources. My students have a drive and a will to explore the world around them. Art education builds a strong foundation of critical thinking skills, mathematics, history, problem solving, writing, science and more. We also develop fine motor skills that are imperative for success at the elementary level. Art class is where you get to use every subject all at once. Having a strong arts program is vital to the redevelopment and community building efforts that Erie is currently progressing towards. By exposing students to different types of art and artists we can build a foundation of trust and respect for other cultures and people in our neighborhoods.
