Dear Lynn, Rosie and Lori,
I'm really looking
forward to getting to know you all and to starting a hopefully rewarding
and engaging discussion about arts education. I've been involved in
arts education with an emphasis on arts integration for many years,
starting first when I was the Studio Program Curator at the Children's
Museum/Museo de los Ninos downtown.One thing I've learned is that I
glean as much or more information and inspiration from my students and
fellow teachers as I hope to impart! I'm eager to learn more about your
experiences as artists and arts educators and am honored to be working
with you.
I'd like to use this blog as a means to
share ideas among each other and to function as a project journal for
all of us. If you can each create a blog or send me to a link to your
own blogs, we can keep track of our ideas and document this adventure
together!
I've posted a link to an inspirational video!
I hope it gets us all in the mood to be creative and continue to
believe in what we've dedicated our lives to. Please take a few minutes
to watch the clip and post some thoughts in response.
Annika
