blogs and comments

We are so excited to be able to provide the opportunity the opportunity for two schools to get a chance to share ideas about art education together!  We hope you enjoy this experience and learn to love blogging! 
There are 27 blogs total under "My blog list".  You can comment on any of the blogs there from either school. Please try and label your blog with a title related to the assignment to help others read your blog post and comment on it. After the 27 blogs from this semester are 6 from last semester. They all have "z" at the beginning to make sure they are listed last on our list. Feel free to check them out if you wish. We also have a spot under under our blog list called "related Blogs to check out".  Listed here are some art teacher blogs and student teacher blogging about their experiences.  If you find an interesting blog you would like posted, just send it to your professor and she will add it to our related blogs list.  I hope this helps our site be less confusing!  
Happy blogging and happy commenting!

VP in Dubuque arrested

Just imagine how difficult this will make the lives of many teachers in the coming months. As a teacher you are held to high standards. One mistake or moral misstep could end your career. Parents, students, peers, and supervisors are always watching. If you consider the amount of trust society places in teachers this constant surveillance is just a small price to pay for such a noble calling.  Below is a link to a wonderful set of things to consider as a teacher.
