I am very excited to say that I have joined a team of one of what I believe to be Rotorua's best primary schools! I am teaching in a Year Six classroom and can't wait to work with children who are at such an exciting age and stage of their life!
I had my very first teacher only day today and did lots of planning for next year. One of the units we are covering at the start of the year is self portraits of the children and I have decided to do them through the Chuck Close style of art. For more information on this and how to do this simply follow the link below and it will take you to the blog that I got this brilliant idea from! http://artiswhatiteach.blogspot.co.nz/2011/03/6th-grade-chuck-close-self-portraits.html
I cannot wait to see how these turn out and will have to post photos of them once the children have done them!
