The Classroom

As you might know I teach K-4 Art in Chelmsford MA.  I teach about 400 kids a week and I have a lot of trouble organizing my art room.  Is it so bad to be unorganized?  I can still find everything!  I have to store all the art from the whole year in my classroom and by this time of year it gets very cluttered.  At the beginning of the year the room looks very neat and tidy but then the FUN starts and I sort of like it like this.  Am I the only one out there?

El Anatsui an African Artist from Ghana is showing his work at the Brooklyn Museum of Art in Brooklyn NY, and I went down to see the show this week! It was amazing!!! He uses found materials from Africa to create these gorgeous installations.
