Yesterday was my first day back at school and it was so comforting to see familiar faces in the classroom. I've heard that the third year in teaching is when everything comes together, and I am confident that this will be a great year! This past August, I graduated from Moore College of Art and Design with my Masters in Art Education with an Emphasis in Special Populations, and I've connected with an amazing community of art educators in the process. While I do not have a class room, I've grown to love my art cart, and will continually find adaptations to make my art cart a one stop shop.
Projects from last year are archived under the tab "2015-2016 Art Cart Projects." If your'e interested at what's happening in my classes, you will be able to search the projects by grade in the drop down menu. I look forward to posting every week! I am overjoyed and grateful that I will now teach grade K-8 and that every student will have the opportunity to experience visual art. None of this would be possible without the great support of the PAS parents and staff, the HSA and ArtWell, a non profit organization whose main goal is to help students awaken their dreams. More information on ArtWell can be found at www.theartwell.org I hope your Fall is off to a great start! All the best, Kara Rutledge
