Technology and Displays, yay!

So,  I don't have my own camera, but my school has one....that means photos for my blog!  yay!

Just a little bit of an update for you today.  My little bitty rural school is doing great!  The faculty are super supportive, and they are spending lots of money on me to update my classroom with a new computer, an LCD projector, and  a Promethian board (yay!).  They are also going to tear down a half-finished frescoed mural in the hall, repaint the wall, and buy some display strips that I picked out so that I can display every student work together!  I CAN'T wait!  It's going to be great to have that space, because my students have been doing such an awesome job on their artwork, they deserve to have it on display!  (I have been 'borrowing' wall space from other teachers to get artwork in the halls...but soon enough, that will be done and over with!) 

  I'll be putting together an art display for the Board of Education meeting in March, and the artworks that get picked for it will also be displayed on the county website as well.  My students are super-excited for the opportunity to have a public art display.  So excited in fact, that they are making it REALLY hard to pick out the best work because they are all doing a great job!
