About Me

My photo
My name is Sara and I am an art teacher at a small elementary school in the Sunshine State. I teach Kindergarten through fifth grade students. I believe arts education is an integral part of a child's success in school and in life. Students take home more than projects they've completed. They come home with confidence, passion, curiosity, and most importantly, "life".

View from the Window


Students viewed the painting, "The Red Kerchief: Portrait of Camille Monet" by Claude Monet. We then discussed what we see when we look through the window Monet created. We talked about the muted colors, but the bright vivid scarf she is wearing. I then asked them to draw their own "view from a window". Some created a window, some created glass doors, but the interesting part was seeing what each student likes to see when they look out a window.
