Sorry for not blogging before now I was trying to get on and had a difficult time. Of course it was a simple problem. Which involved a human error.

For the first time we are having a formal class in Visual Arts County Wide in the Elementary Schools. I am so excited. It is going very well.

West and East have learned so much. It’s hard to believe that this nine weeks is over. I will return after Christmas. We will put together all the elements we have learned over the next nine weeks.
Look over the elements listed on the my blog to keep up and be ready to go on to design which I know is what they are waiting for.

Have fun with music!! See You around.
