I am an art teacher in a rural school district and I am passionate about making a difference in the lives of the students I teach. When I first started this blog many years ago I had more time to write and over the last few years I haven't posted as much. Public education has been changing and I hope to offer some encouragement and support to others during the coming months. Thanks for checking in.

3rd Grade Mother's Day Paintings
May was flower month at East Elementary! The 3rd grade students learned about the life cycle of flowers as they learned to sketch different flowers and then paint them using acrylic paint on canvas art boards. The students mixed their own colors of paint to create highlights and shadows on their vase and flowers. This was really challenging for the students but we had a wonderful time. Each child presented his or her painting to their mother at a special program on May 13th.
