Let's See What's Hanging...

on the line outside my classroom door.

Lot's of tye-dye going on.

My Beginning 3-D kids are now teaching their friends the art of Tye-Dye,

and now we've got at least 5 kids in the classroom everyday after school rinsing the excess dye out of their garments

 and hanging them on the line to dry overnight. 

What's so cool is that many of these kids are band students who have never been able to fit my class into their schedules.

And they are coming into the art room for the first time in their 6 years at Whitney.

I'm almost thinking of leaving out the dyes all year long to attract even more students.

So every morning when I walk up to my classroom 

I see wonderful design and color as it should be.

And the kids are finding all sorts of things to dye,

as you can see. 

Juniors Hazel Cruz and Erin B. are especially getting some crazy wonderful results.

In fact,

 I gave Hazel a frock of my own to dye, 

and as you can see she did a fantastic job for me.

Thanks Hazel!!!!
