Ready!

Our open house was on Thursday and I got to see my students who were all so happy to see me, too.  I am very thankful to have a full schedule of art this year again, and be at one building.  Memorial is kindergarten through 3rd grade.  I will spend 90 minutes a week with every student in our school.  Classes come twice a week to art.  I love having so much studio time with these kids.  Last year they turned out some pretty incredible artwork!
I decorated the studio in a Lego theme.  I know Legos don't appeal to everyone...but I think it works great in an art room.  I really like the "giant" mini figures that are all over the room.  I will use them to communicate important information or for prompts or ideas.  I love that it is so easy to just whip up a new saying for the speech bubbles!  Here are a few shots of our studio so far...
