1st grade owls

I sometime do a owl project with my 1st graders. And I seem to do it different every year. One thing I have been thinking about is that sometime I or we as art teachers don't let the students just be creative. You know we tell them what to draw and how to color it so it looks certain way. While for this I did show them how to draw and color the background. But then it came owl I showed them how to draw them but they could color them anyway they like. They turned out really good. I was very happy with there work.

Throw down update

Well you wouldn't believe the 3rd grade teacher and I both made brownies with bacon in them. I did put up a good fight but I lost. Most people thought mine tasted better but my presentation cost me the win. The people that judge this for us to do this again before the school year is over. Not sure that will happen. Will keep you posted.

Iron Chef throw down

Ok I know this is not an art thing but I figure I let all of you in on this. One thing about me is that around 2003 I took up cooking. I love it. So anyways a third grade teacher and I are having a Iron Chef Throw Down. The mystery Ingredient was bacon. I can't say what I made just yet. I will let you all l know on Wednesday. Wish me luck.

Update

My post are going to be a bit odd. My computer crashed the other day so the only way I can update my blog is on the iPhone and iPad. Which are not the same as my pc so I am sorry if I make don't say much or many many post to show you all multiple pictures of stuff. I hope to have my pc fix soon.

Packing tape sculpture

I first try at making packing tape sculpture.
If you never seen this be for google it or search Mark Jenkins. Not sure who what grade I would do this with. Plus it take a lot of tape to do this. But it is really cool.
