Hi everyone! Here I am on a new journey in my local school district as a first year art teacher. I used to work in a non-profit setting where I taught for three years. It was such a great learning experience that really prepared me for where I am today. I am 17 weeks into my first public school year and I couldn't be happier. I also just graduated from the University of Florida with my Masters in Art Education. So this blog is to detail all the awesome happenings in the art room as I try to encourage my new and wonderful students to make decisions and think about their art. I used to teach using a choice-based approach where students are true artists and develop their own projects. My students have proved to me that they can be intrinsically motivated and create wonderful and personal art.
I love teaching art and I hope that you follow me along in the journey. I will post lessons, approaches, pictures and reflect on daily happenings.
