First marking period grades are in!

The second marking period has begun and the grades for the first marking period are posted!  The next several weeks bring the end of my student teacher's tenure even closer.  I am not looking forward to her leaving - she is so good!  The students are creating wonderful things with Christen and she has great ideas!

I only hope I'll be able to keep up with her...

PAEA Conference 2009 in Malvern!

Well, it has been quite some time since my last post.  Things have been crazy with the start of school and I feel like I am off to the races!  I do have some help-I have a student teacher this fall and she is marvelous.  Christen is a BFA major in Photography from Tyler and I have 3 photo classes and 2 digital design classes and Christen is very adept with Illustrator and Photoshop.  I am so excited about the lessons she is teaching!
Here I am in Malvern, Pa. at the annual PAEA Conference!  Today was a laid back day.  Tomorrow the sessions begin in earnest and I have the first of a 2 day Journaling workhop.  Saturday, Jamie Kasper and I will be welcoming new and pre-service teachers to the profession.  I am looking forward to both workshops - meeting new art teachers, networking, and learning.  It will be excitng to return to school recharged and renewed with new ideas and techniques.

I hope to post each day as a quick update...
