Today is Friday! Its started off a bit chaotic, but has now settled down! Thanks heavens to Betsey for that. So today I decided to spend minimal time on the computer and spend my day making art with my students. Every once in a while I do that with them, they really do love it. Last semester I did a drawing of Hadley on her dad's snowmobile. And now that I have a student teacher I can do art ALL day!
Julie and I did an online workshop fro Art Trader Magazine on Art Journals. Well, last semester was a bit crazy and I never really got around to doing it. So today I printed off all the pages, put it in a binder and I have officially covered my journal! A HS Art Teachers Journal of art n things!
Since our school is focusing on literacy I really want to incorporate what I am doing into my classes. Deb Day and I would love to team teach a class the incorporated art and writing, it would be AWESOME! Stay tuned for examples of the journal, I am hoping to go CRAZY with it!!!!
I love both your posts today--they made me laugh. And yes, we have to figure out the whole creative writing/art thing. I know we could do it with online portfolios. Are you teaching that class this summer????
ReplyDeleteNo can do....I don't have my masters! Another reason added to my list of why I need to start that this summer!!!!
