I made a new poster for my classroom:
I'd been thinking about "Art Is" since Chicago and NAEA. There was a presentation I went to (maybe it was a museum educator from Ohio?!) and I wrote some notes (and I thought I took pictures), neither of which I can find now. We were given time during the session to think about what art is, and there was a hashtag. . . I really did think about it, but my hashtag skills are #nonexistent.
My poster says:
Art is
All the ideas
Rolling around in your head NOT JUST
Technical skill (how well you draw/paint).
I used some art images that I had that someone had given me to dress it up a bit. I do love it, but I hate it's dual purpose:
We had active shooter training for the second time/year in a row last week and covering that little skinny window was a subject covered. I didn't have any posters that were long enough, so I made this one. I hate that we live in a world were things like "active shooter" and "elementary school" can go together.
Keep your chins up, friends, we're doing good and teaching f.i.n.e.
Bless your heart.
