I have always

loved art. When I was

in elementary school it
was my favorite class
and I contribute that to
my teacher. She was
fun, energetic, and en-
couraging. When we
would finish a project
she made the whole
class feel that their
work was a master-
piece. Our teacher
would reserve the dis-
play case in the front of
the entrance and hang
all of our art work.
As I got older
the art teachers werent
as exciting and fun but
still tried to encourage
us to reach our full art
potential. The projects
were bigger and the
amount of time it took
to finish a project was
longer. But in middle
school you started to
see what you could do if
you tool the time to do
the work the right way.
High school art
class was my favorite.
We had the chance not
only to paint, but work
with clay, paper pulp
and so much more that
we havent worked with
before. Seeing the end
of every project in my
class was the best
memory I have of my
art history. EVERY
project always came out
unbelievably good. The
teacher would take her
time explaining and
showing the class what
to do and how to do it
so our projects came
our as well as we want-
ed them to.
My experiences
with art has always
been a good one. Not
just in an art class
room but in all classes.
Today I dont spend as
much time as id like to
on art but I know when
it comes time to have
my own classroom I
have plenty of ideas to
take from. When I have
my own classroom I
will be sure to incorpo-
rate art into lessons
because I know how
hard it is to not be able
to understand content
unless you can either
put your hands on it or
visually see it.
