First Month Down...
So, a little bit o background:
I just graduated this past May, and right now I am working as the Interim at a wonderful Elementary Arts Academy in my hometown. It's really just been fantastic! Because it's an Arts Academy, I also get to teach Arts-Infusion lessons in the regular classrooms. Basically, that means that I co-teach art lessons with homeroom teachers in order to reinforce learning in Math, Science, Social Studies, etc. Wherever there is a natural connection between the subject matter and the visual arts, then we connect it. Together as a team. It has been such a neat learning experience to be involved in this. I've never seen a program quite like it before, but it really should be incorporated everywhere! :)
Aside from the Arts-Infusion, I get to teach my regular art classes, k-6 all day, and then I also sponsor an Art Club in the afternoons. Soon, we will be working on a Mural with a very special Artist. The kids are super-excited about it because we've been planning it out and working with the principal on it. We should be getting to meet the Artist to discuss designs pretty soon.
Anyways, first blog post down, more to come, with photos too! Yay! :)
