New Year - New School!

Hello all! It is that time of year again when we all scramble to stock up on school supplies and pick out that perfect outfit for the first day of school. And for some people that also means hours of sorting and organizing art supplies.

I will be at a new school this year where I will be working full time teaching art to students in grades 7-9. I will be at MacDowell Montessori school, which is a K-12 school in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and is part of the Milwaukee Public School System. I am starting out sort of a new art program for the students there and have spent lots of time this past month changing a bare homeroom into an art room. Looking forward to a successful and fun year. Stay tuned for more posts throughout the school year...

 Carloads of stuff to bring in...

 I made paper chandeliers to identify different tables by color.
 My desk area with a little bit of Asian flair.
 Since there aren't a lot of cabinet, most of my storage is open bookcases,                                               so I made curtains to cover them.
