My Students

As a first year teacher, I’m just getting to know my students. Bit by bit they’re letting me into their worlds of fairies and angels and mind craft and fort night, butterflies and dragons. The look on their faces when they learn that drawing those things from their world isn’t as hard as they’ve always feared it to be has in turn affected me whole heartedly ... in that teaching these kids isn’t as hard as I’ve feared it to be.

My Project

I am a first year art teacher & my goal is to teach the children and give them a foundation in which to thrive creatively...starting with the elements of art. These kids are sponges and their minds are just bursting with ideas and images! I want to help transfer what they see in their head to paper. However, we have no paper!! Not quality paper that will allow them a mistake or two ... copy/print paper is so darn unforgiving!! I’d really like to gift the older students a sketch pad/journal of their own so they can see for themselves how patience, practice, & perspective pays off.
