Who knew teaching art could be this much fun!

What an exciting first week I had at Lutz Prep!  Today was my first full day of specials, and each period went by so fast, I had a lot of fun getting to know all the new kids.  I do have the good fortune to get my own two children on Mondays, so it was a great day.  I shall sleep well tonight.

We started working on Art Portfolios.  Duck Tape is my friend and friend to many.  Have you seen Duck Tape lately?  Macaroni & Cheese, Bacon, Mustaches and much much more.  So much fun.  I will also leave you with some photos of our classroom.  Mrs. Williams and I worked very hard the last month of summer to get a pop of color in our classroom.  I salvaged some palettes (a.k.a skids) from the dumpster to create an awesome portfolio sorter/holder.  Saved us a lot of $$, and no more plastic tubs for storage. Win-Win I tell you.  Please feel free to leave comments on the blog.
