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.

2nd grade geometric art!
Our 2nd graders have been creating beautiful geometric art as they reviewed basic math lines and shapes. We drew 2 horizontal lines, 2 vertical lines, 2 diagonal lines and 3 circles in different sizes. We identified the shapes we created and then colored our pictures with oil pastels. We added shading and texture to our pictures by adding pattern. If you want to see an amazing display, come see the 2nd grade community art created by putting all of these pictures together. It looks like an amazing crazy quilt!
