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 Manga Art
The 3rd graders have been having a wonderful time drawing self portraits "manga" style! Manga is a japanese word that means "whimsical picture" and this art style is fun and popular! Portraits done in "manga" style typically have big eyes, big hair with wild colors, and small noses and mouths. Chances are, you will see lots of cute Manga art all over the school right now in the form of comic strips, cards and little cartoons! Miss Foley's class even taught their parents how to draw "manga" at the art show!
