| 6th grade Styrofoam print - learning to get the inking "right" |
Ken Robinson is endlessly inspiring for me. The following quote came across my "desk" (aka art teacher Facebook groups) today (thank you TAB facebook and No Child Left Behind ). Just when I was ready to quit Facebook and pursue more space in my life/brain/eyes too. I guess this is why I stay "plugged in," gifts like this one pop up all the time.
@SirKenRobinson: "That's why I always say that teaching is an art form. It's not a delivery system. I don't know when we started confusing teaching with FedEx. Teaching is an arts practice. It's about connoisseurship and judgement and intuition. We all remember the great teachers in our lives. The ones who kind of woke us up and that we're still thinking about because they said something to us or they gave us an angle on something that we've never forgotten."
