First Day!

On October 23 I finally got to work with the adorable kids in Mrs. Terry's class. I was absolutely amazed at how smart all of them were! And how exposed they were to the art world at such a young age. It is amazing to see the arts thriving in this classroom and I am so lucky to be able to work with such awesome kids. 

I was a bit nervous at first to teach, especially when I read "The Noisy Paintbox" to them, but it all turned out great. The kids love to learn and really got involved, which not only made my job easier but a lot more fun. It was entertaining to watch them almost falling out of their seats just to answer my questions. I can't wait to see them tomorrow!

For a play by play of how the lesson went you can refer to my lesson template below. You can also see some of the photos from when we read the book and looked at Kandinsky's paintings.Tomorrow I will be visiting them again and we will be painting to music just like Kandinsky did!
