My students are non-verbal adolescent students with autism, and they are amazing artists. I have seen each one of them engage with materials ranging from sculpture and collage to painting and mixed media projects. They are creative individuals, and I intend to continue to develop their skills and talents by giving them opportunities to explore materials and processes in my visual arts classroom. Using digital cameras I will be able to teach my students about some of the various techniques and styles of photography. They will also develop their observational skills as we venture out into our city to explore and understand how our surroundings affect our artwork. As non-verbal communicators, their art and their uses of color, form and individual style, allows them to express themselves daily. I gather new understandings as each school year progresses and I am inspired by my students every day.
