Farewell 3rd Quarter 7th Grade Art Wheel Students!

Look how sweet and calm they appear. I always take 2 shots for the farewell. A "say cheese" for the camera shot and then a "crazy " shot. This group's crazy shot was so wild that I couldn't post it. LOL So you are seeing their much more subdued "say cheese" shot. I'll miss you guys, feel like I'm just getting to know you and it's already time for you to go. Have fun in Ms. Improta's drama class. Alan and Mark, she's gonna love you both! Be good, and come back to me when you can fit in an art class.

Farewell 2nd Quarter 7th Graders

It was a bit of a rocky road at first, but we made it. And I think we had a lot of fun in the process. What I do know is that there was a lot of artistic talent in this group and I'm hoping for many of you to return to me for future art classes. So don't forget about me, stop by and visit at lunch, and come in at Open House time to see the room full of art! I'm sorry to see you go and I will miss all of you! Make me proud, and Chase, Turath , Brandon , Justin, Jonathon and Tiffany, behave yourselves please. I want Ms. Improta to love you as much as I do!!

Farewell to my 1st Quarter 7th Graders

Just wanted to say good-bye to my sweet babies. Gonna miss you guys so much!!!! You were a wonderful group to start off this 7th grade wheel experiment with. I've never had a group of students work so hard for me with such joy and enthusiasm. You've set the bar really high for the other 3 groups that will be following you this year. Thank you for all your hard work and the amount of energy and effort you put into my class. I hope to see all of you at least one more year in another art class before you graduate. Love you all! And be good for your other teachers, make me proud!!! And don't forget to bring your parents in Open House Nite so I can meet them. The date is April 22. See ya then!

These are some of the kids working on their felt soap project. Way too much fun! To my new 7th graders in 2nd quarter for extra credit tonight: put your name and period on a piece of brown paper and then write down on the other side of the paper what your favorite thing about going to Whitney is. Where do you get brown paper? Be creative! Think kitchen.
