The Start

The year has started off great! It has been super crazy getting used to my new schedule, but I just have to keep reminding myself to breathe and take it one day at a time.

My students at West Street all decorated a hand with things they like or represent themselves. It was a good first day, one day project. I hung all the hand prints up on the bulletin board outside the art room for Parents Night. I will take a picture of all the hands when I'm there next. However, here's the hand I made.
Students in all grades are working on their first projects. The students at West Street are all working on projects that have to do with line and The students at East Meadow are all working on projects that have to do with color. I will post photos as they finish and hopefully some in progress ones as well. My 7th and 8th graders are working on an abstract project using shading to create movement.

Before I go here's some pictures of two of my classrooms before the kids showed up.
