Hello Everyone! This is my first blog post. I was encouraged by some of my other art teacher friends to create a blog onto my page to keep people up-to-date on what we are doing in our classroom. So here is the newest info!
Using Artsonia (an online art gallery) I started a gallery for all of my classes. This is a unique way to share student artwork with all family members, not just the ones living at home. The students also have the opportunity to win giftcards for art supplies if their artwork is chosen as artwork of the week! Here is the link to our classroom Artsonia page: http://www.artsonia.com/schools/school.asp?id=19155
If you have not already granted permission for your student's artwork to be viewed, please do so soon so that we can start spreading the art!
Also to help the students and I put all our work on Artsonia and to participate in Scholastic Art and Writing Awards (deadline is Dec. 15th) I have written a grant through Donor's Choose to help get us some classroom cameras. Since all the art contests are now digital these would be a big help. Here is the link for that:

Signing off for now!
