We are now few weeks into the new school year and I have finally met all of my young student artists! I wanted to take an opportunity to welcome you all back and share some new happenings in the Middleton Art Program.
This year I will be working hard to help students be risk takers in art and Artovation class! I always start the year off with a class mantra to motivate and inspire. Take a look at past mantras here.
This year's mantra is brought to you by one of my favorite teachers: Ms. Frizzle!
If you are familiar with the Magic School Bus, you know that in each episode Ms. Frizzle encourages her students to take chances, make mistakes, and get messy of course!
I can't think if a better way to help develop risk taking skills in the art room.
I love this quote by Thomas Edison:
"I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work."
Quotes likes these give us permission to fail.
It is under these conditions that true learning can take place!
