My Project

My students are excited when they come to the art room! They can't wait to get to work. We have a school wide art show at the end of the year to showcase student work. This year will our first in person show since the pandemic.

I want my students to be able to see their work through out the year and reflect on how their work has progressed throughout the year.

With their own personal portfolio, they will be able not only view their work, taking care of the portfolio will help foster a sense of ownership of their artwork.
