Part of the plan was for this to be a community art project, so after I had painted some outlines, community members were invited to come participate in painting! The turnout was better than I ever expected with approximately 50 community members, many of them families with young children, coming out to help in just a few hours. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUSoN_QCffiHUuAoCcv9Y9vZNaHDDZbPV5TozioznJvCUKbfgDEN_ZJEVMyRE2dEQ41sPsEG-ms9umvGHUxn1ocSocGtioZWofc2W8WAWPnkhu-HhhWiWmPF8G7zbQlM36TTnrEct7sYVtDpexbgBIviGJ6wS6HBWYp0_yhPigiRAo7JS0eEyKdkqzOg/s3088/2E63AE7D-C430-4058-88FD-5426B4869888.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3088" data-original-width="2316" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUSoN_QCffiHUuAoCcv9Y9vZNaHDDZbPV5TozioznJvCUKbfgDEN_ZJEVMyRE2dEQ41sPsEG-ms9umvGHUxn1ocSocGtioZWofc2W8WAWPnkhu-HhhWiWmPF8G7zbQlM36TTnrEct7sYVtDpexbgBIviGJ6wS6HBWYp0_yhPigiRAo7JS0eEyKdkqzOg/s320/2E63AE7D-C430-4058-88FD-5426B4869888.jpeg" width="240" /></a></div>I went back to finish the painting over the next couple of weeks and was thankful for the help of some friends and family to get the big areas filled in.

I added in a few more wildflowers for more color.</div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTFXH5SrQ5slEh8jHd20uAwT3doz7kuPB0XudmVKrxAwz3DSJ-uXZFjAziQX-8f5uk6u9_X005Xijji-xLCH2HMS6GFURJSzojTA8Lu_Vb87qyAA8AG6g0LHSIRDYNFsOtEqyCwqb8TfPYPsOWDXjsnktDxCraAl7SQ3idIaMj3leWAIBY064M3_xf_w/s4032/E343CC5F-4BB9-4828-B6A3-C74C93A4832E.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTFXH5SrQ5slEh8jHd20uAwT3doz7kuPB0XudmVKrxAwz3DSJ-uXZFjAziQX-8f5uk6u9_X005Xijji-xLCH2HMS6GFURJSzojTA8Lu_Vb87qyAA8AG6g0LHSIRDYNFsOtEqyCwqb8TfPYPsOWDXjsnktDxCraAl7SQ3idIaMj3leWAIBY064M3_xf_w/s320/E343CC5F-4BB9-4828-B6A3-C74C93A4832E.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I was able to complete the 8 x 13 foot mural in a week.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4R-LeY7cf9MWRnyihgCz9nE_9mF-ALpcge193H6YJqDDPYyD7yqyM8YZnd_oCylkVfllb70quZyLkEdyX_nTd-QZyUx2bZIZL2z_Uwuz86LaMWstgilMPLLvFkIHBIyG2HIkS-2xTh7Mwi7KEYO1gImOtbQvNFadDIW2V5R62Onq8_kH7vs_OmXOblw/s4032/C2CC2C99-46A0-4F38-B123-BA580D9E0A61.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4R-LeY7cf9MWRnyihgCz9nE_9mF-ALpcge193H6YJqDDPYyD7yqyM8YZnd_oCylkVfllb70quZyLkEdyX_nTd-QZyUx2bZIZL2z_Uwuz86LaMWstgilMPLLvFkIHBIyG2HIkS-2xTh7Mwi7KEYO1gImOtbQvNFadDIW2V5R62Onq8_kH7vs_OmXOblw/s320/C2CC2C99-46A0-4F38-B123-BA580D9E0A61.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">The barn seems to be everyone's favorite detail of the mural!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOHX8LY8La0gudd1GDHhiplgny-pLG5_ouV5xc1lRi_L_x_SgFWztFKEgbgq_LiWrpW4WRKhSiXJypLwZzxenRQksUCcA6hNCI__do8whA1hU8AcHslPheHcSAnPzHoR8diaRWmBsWpUfgGixP1guMUxg3RQddZ94FIPbxAqGsaKyRj4GDo4DPxa4noA/s4032/3122D470-C7BD-40D0-9EFA-762F361ED51E.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOHX8LY8La0gudd1GDHhiplgny-pLG5_ouV5xc1lRi_L_x_SgFWztFKEgbgq_LiWrpW4WRKhSiXJypLwZzxenRQksUCcA6hNCI__do8whA1hU8AcHslPheHcSAnPzHoR8diaRWmBsWpUfgGixP1guMUxg3RQddZ94FIPbxAqGsaKyRj4GDo4DPxa4noA/s320/3122D470-C7BD-40D0-9EFA-762F361ED51E.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I hope that the hospital employees will be able to enjoy the painting for years to come and that it gives them a peaceful scene to look at when taking a break on a stressful day.</div></div><p></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/" class="pin-it-button" count-layout="horizontal">Pin It</a>

We learn about conservation and duck stamps before students create artwork in their choice of media using observational drawing skills. It is a good confidence booster since we cover skills that are helpful for realistic drawing since we all know students at this age tend to lose interest if they have trouble translating what they see. I also use it as an opportunity to demonstrate multiple painting and drawing media that students can choose from. I can’t wait to share the news from the contest as soon as we get full results!</p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhY5N6Q9ybSVcMVRr_t-ybLz4_05tLLW4BJ9vBEg53gIcx84SEzAzJST-OHl2JH0nr4YX-k-BhJaCkTa9DttnRnhk6FBg9dHlbMhNfcrUzNMXyYL0uH-7Pv2GDo8GtbiCFk--LZ4l-dlCzKnJV_EpQRabXNVO9x9PIPRl82laMdfYUNPG2OJAXVNr2rdQ/s828/FFF4C7D6-B3C9-4F66-8776-F26CA2FE0347.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

Here is the testimony I submitted opposing Kansas SB393. Be on the look out for bills in your state that show a need for public education advocacy!</p><p><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">February 9, 2022</span></p><br style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;" /><p dir="ltr" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Chair Sen. Molly Baumgardner, Vice Chair Sen. Renee Erickson, Ranking Minority Member Sen. Dinah Sykes, and Members of the Senate Committee on Education:</span></p><br style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;" /><p dir="ltr" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">My name is Katie Morris and I have been a Kansas public school teacher for 12.5 years. I am very concerned about and ask you to oppose SB393. Either the bill sponsors do not know how much they are asking with this legislation or they know exactly how much they are asking and are purposefully trying to drive more educators away from the field, at a time when we are already facing shortages.</span></p><br style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;" /><p dir="ltr" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This bill is both impractical and unnecessary. Why is it impractical? I teach Kindergarten-12th grade art which means that in any given school year I prepare and plan units and lessons for 12 different curriculums: one for each grade K-8, and three different high school courses. I see 7 different classes a day and 11 different classes in a week. My lesson plans change year to year and sometimes within sections of the same class because I adapt to meet the needs of my students. I want to be able to continue to do what is best for my students without the fear I will forget to share a resource and bring financial punishment on my school district. I’m not sure this is common knowledge outside the teaching profession so I will tell you: it is already impossible or nearly so for teachers to get their work done during 45 minutes of plan time. In the last two school years teachers have even been asked to give up that plan time to cover other teachers’ classes when substitutes can not be found! We are not paid for coming in to get work done before school or working after. Any work I do outside my 7:50-3:30 duty day is unpaid labor. This extra reporting would increase the burden on a population that is already overworked. Teachers across the state of Kansas and across the nation are feeling burnt out like never before and we do not need one more hoop to jump through.</span></p><br style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;" /><p dir="ltr" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This legislation is unnecessary, and frankly, it is insulting. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in 2009, my Master’s degree in 2016, and continue to both develop professionally and take on leadership roles to help serve the profession. I attend annual professional development conferences and prepare workshops on art standards, curriculum, studio techniques, and more to share with other teachers. I serve on the board of Kansas Art Education Association and have twice been named KAEA Outstanding Art Educator of the Year- in 2014 for Elementary and last October for K-12. I serve on my school’s Building and District Leadership teams and as the 7-12 Mentor for 1st and 2nd year teachers in our school district. I tell you these facts not to boast, but to illustrate the fact that I am a trained professional who is dedicated to my field. I also want to note that I am not unique in this regard. I work with a school full of capable educators and I trust them with my children.</span></p><br style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;" /><p dir="ltr" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This bill shows the sponsors’ distrust of professional educators’ abilities to do the jobs for which we were hired under the guise of “accountability”. Parents have as much access to information about what their children are being taught as they desire. Many teachers, myself included, use social media to share what is happening in our classrooms because we are proud of the work we are doing with students and want parents to be part of that process. School districts often use platforms that allow parents to see assignments shared digitally with students, parents have access to assignments in gradebooks, and of course can speak with a teacher if they have questions about what is being taught. We do not need a piece of legislation for parents to know what is happening in their child’s school and we do not need to paint teachers as “bad guys”.</span></p><br style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;" /><p dir="ltr" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The legislature would also be wise to consider economic ramifications of this and other anti-public education bills. A friend from my hometown who is living in another state shared that she and her husband were considering moving back to Kansas to be closer to home but hearing about attacks on public education make them hesitant to relocate their growing family. When we show we care about public education, we make Kansas more attractive to families and businesses looking to relocate. Another factor to consider is what happens when more teachers leave the profession? Schools are vital to our communities, especially in rural areas and we need them operational!</span></p><br style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;" /><p dir="ltr" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Teachers want to teach. We want to feel supported or at the very least not attacked. Please make sure we are able to keep doing a good job for Kansas students.</span></p><br style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;" /><p dir="ltr" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Katie Morris</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Holton, KS</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">catharine.morris@yahoo.com</span></p><br style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;" /><br style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;" /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/" class="pin-it-button" count-layout="horizontal">Pin It</a>

I introduced each grade to a modern or contemporary artist and 3rd grade learned about Yayoi Kusama. I read them a book about her but for the life of me I can't remember which one! I will share this resource from the Tate about her- <a href="https://www.tate.org.uk/kids/explore/who-is/who-yayoi-kusama">https://www.tate.org.uk/kids/explore/who-is/who-yayoi-kusama</a> because it would work really well.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjA2qSfp0Wxp0fsuCeh1-0vqXRYJirD3zPX9vIUw3KwAN7IzRP_nVEuhCwvrRfgDZxOn-V7I73Eo0fxGnslEtoAAiIA7o8DZjnPNTIbz6M-voCyHc8WJDs90hHNLlxDZQShX-gSs3lE61UaCTPozhshyYlTS3Wsv3AT90X8oWv-HB_iYHRyB9EnsxapRA=s828" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="641" data-original-width="828" height="248" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjA2qSfp0Wxp0fsuCeh1-0vqXRYJirD3zPX9vIUw3KwAN7IzRP_nVEuhCwvrRfgDZxOn-V7I73Eo0fxGnslEtoAAiIA7o8DZjnPNTIbz6M-voCyHc8WJDs90hHNLlxDZQShX-gSs3lE61UaCTPozhshyYlTS3Wsv3AT90X8oWv-HB_iYHRyB9EnsxapRA=s320" width="320" /></a></div>I came across a big bunch of dot stickers like people use for garage sales when I was cleaning out a drawer so those became the special material for this lesson. I gave each student a sheet of orange, yellow, and green and a piece of drawing paper. Then they were allowed to use the dot stickers however they wanted with the school supplies they had in their bins! It was interesting to see the different solutions they came up with.

The textiles usually relate to the subject he is representing and I started to think about how students could do both the technical process of overlaying textiles with layer masks and work with the idea of choosing textiles that could represent their own cultures and interests.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Here is the handout I posted for students: </div><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JIFjV8slFuVaFlCjle9PxdJTEgluWX45sH3RAna48Cs/view">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JIFjV8slFuVaFlCjle9PxdJTEgluWX45sH3RAna48Cs/view</a><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi3Xmzfkzy9PcKzNLY5EjgUa4FHLJ7yW9YtNfVbNh2n8XcMpMHMZZ_qN58COCma8s8-nHaFF20teRvlo4Fxl-u7x-AS2JJNyzVnScajlgLopNXyJaBBW1CuDwFHjULul9H4rZ-pQvdD7QlYwl72yN_KAc7rS0yu3uWJwSXRFfIzExFQ_Rjf-r4d6k50hg=s1792" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1754" data-original-width="1792" height="313" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi3Xmzfkzy9PcKzNLY5EjgUa4FHLJ7yW9YtNfVbNh2n8XcMpMHMZZ_qN58COCma8s8-nHaFF20teRvlo4Fxl-u7x-AS2JJNyzVnScajlgLopNXyJaBBW1CuDwFHjULul9H4rZ-pQvdD7QlYwl72yN_KAc7rS0yu3uWJwSXRFfIzExFQ_Rjf-r4d6k50hg=s320" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This took 2 class periods for my students but it could definitely be done in one if your students have more experience.

The students brainstormed and selected two different pieces of weather-related data they could collect based on their observations of our weather over the month of April. I gave them a few minutes at the beginning of each class to track their data.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">In May, the students explored more artists whose work visualizes data and came up with a plan for a work of art.

This would work for a hybrid situation!</p><p style="text-align: center;">The students all got the same basic information to start with- the history of postage stamps and videos about the art and design of stamps. </p><p style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="true" frameborder="0" height="299" mozallowfullscreen="true" src="https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/e/2PACX-1vSt-5g4Tubswz-zGKMDpFS7eDqkvBfBuoD44mCXWs7kRv7MkGJIP5kZOPoGa5eCrd1r9wOqBIBnsg8T/embed?start=false&loop=false&delayms=3000" webkitallowfullscreen="true" width="480"></iframe></p><p style="text-align: center;">Next, the students in my classroom chose one or more vintage postage stamps and came up with an idea for how to incorporate them into a work of art! Any two-dimensional media was allowed and a lot of students tried new processes. Some also incorporated vintage photos that I saved from a dumpster.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Here are some photos of the hands-on artwork!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

The solution was to divide them into two groups and they would switch every other day between my room and another teacher with a free period's classroom. I had the choice of synchronous or asynchronous and decided that I would rather do asynchronous than try to teach on zoom and in my classroom at the same time. I tried to design a digital project for the group in the other classroom that would coordinate with what was happening in the art room. We weren't able to get as much choice as a normal semester but I think it was the best solution given the circumstances.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="true" frameborder="0" height="299" mozallowfullscreen="true" src="https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/e/2PACX-1vRRIVPKufJ0I_dKmwdIPaC0x_hHMzCYNSsjzhKei_ASj1KgQMH8elSoWEinyjYftogRMmYSeiyFzuD6/embed?start=false&loop=false&delayms=3000" webkitallowfullscreen="true" width="480"></iframe></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is one example from 7th grade art!

When the resin set up most students added magnetic buttons to the back.

One of the options for the competition was a post-it note mural. I have a couple students who are pretty interested in pixel art so I put them in charge of coming up with a plan. It was supposed to be something "iconic" so they chose the 3 Stooges, then had to translate it to colors that we had available. I ended up having to borrow some post-its and cut some similar colored paper into squares when we started to run out but I think it turned out great! The biggest challenge was staying lined up with multiple people working at the same time. It did not work out to start at opposite sides even though we thought we measured carefully, so there was lots of revision. All in all, they were proud of their artwork and that's what counts!<p></p><p>Here's a time lapse video of the construction!<iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/cbmyFyq3__o" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></p><p>Group photo of some of the artists!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlqDX6kTiyBvcnZ_SP63bJJoWRkBp7hdDtdPqxtwAgjGedl8n1usUTSd7wAzGr6hPqpfJixvvtW5jxCQFA0bvQDvr7i6sXl8Faws-r69kRSFnNwmACaHn3aSawZN0XWS55UubVL7cAQkhz/s2048/56FEF8B8-DE96-4446-ABAF-AA9AEB2E371D.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1535" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlqDX6kTiyBvcnZ_SP63bJJoWRkBp7hdDtdPqxtwAgjGedl8n1usUTSd7wAzGr6hPqpfJixvvtW5jxCQFA0bvQDvr7i6sXl8Faws-r69kRSFnNwmACaHn3aSawZN0XWS55UubVL7cAQkhz/s320/56FEF8B8-DE96-4446-ABAF-AA9AEB2E371D.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgCn2eWmtNk87VCrTotEG8I5GSg_3XTkUPUNmjKqvipZMMAEfaBVSklvgUjwt_RIuW0YEJrKZAYhlTTq6uS-DzOHWPWOSMMSlCE2wITNNzgfOCM3RZpyfe2CtRrlUhyshBObnmRzX-YJyK/s2028/4CE8A725-3A8A-4ABE-AE4C-627481D4AC41.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1630" data-original-width="2028" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgCn2eWmtNk87VCrTotEG8I5GSg_3XTkUPUNmjKqvipZMMAEfaBVSklvgUjwt_RIuW0YEJrKZAYhlTTq6uS-DzOHWPWOSMMSlCE2wITNNzgfOCM3RZpyfe2CtRrlUhyshBObnmRzX-YJyK/s320/4CE8A725-3A8A-4ABE-AE4C-627481D4AC41.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/" class="pin-it-button" count-layout="horizontal">Pin It</a>

Since I already had photographs for all of that artwork, I decided to add in some more artwork that wasn't finished in time or couldn't fit in the limited number of entries for League and share it as our school's virtual art show. I'm requesting to show these before the awards programs for middle and high school since I didn't keep artwork at school for a physical show.</p><p>Enjoy!</p><p><br /></p>

The theme was open and the design was limited to one color- black- because that is what we had available for iron-on vinyl. Art Club paid for the shirts and we got a great deal since a local t-shirt shop offered to order plain white tees for us at cost. This worked out really well since I didn't have to worry about students bringing their shirts on time or bringing shirts that did not have enough cotton to accept the dye.</div><div><br /></div><div>While students were designing, we started dyeing shirts. The ice took so long to melt that I had to ask what colors the students wanted and start sprinkling the colors on in the morning. Now that I know how long it takes, I will plan my timeline differently in the future so students can apply the powdered dye themselves.</div><div><br /></div><div>1. Soak the t-shirts in soda ash water for at least 15 minutes</div><div>2. Ring out the shirt and arrange bunched up on a cooling rack, wire basket, etc. so the water can drip through</div><div>3. Pile ice on the shirt, trying to cover everything- this can take a little practice to get the ice stacked up</div><div>4. Sprinkled on powdered dye- we used jacquard procion dye, about a tablespoon total per shirt, so if you use 3 colors, a teaspoon of each. We did not measure this precisely because I didn't have measuring spoons at school and the spoons borrowed from my clay tools wouldn't fit in the little jars. We stuck the handle of the spoon in and scooped some out, sometimes sprinkling a bit more dye if it looked too pale as the ice melted.</div><div>5. Wait until the ice melts</div><div>6. When ice is totally melted, rinse the shirts until the water runs clear. Ring it out and rinse it again to be safe.</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFh6hGshcqtLBXHZeI4sfrb8HKGkahf4WYCPoHS2fxnna3VywXSgxYEWclk-_epIDQBvjLs_WCrxSvg4RWj_OeArz_HuOcGXxhyVw5XgGVfxA-7a03UbVkX8CY20fqlVI0a88_U_KUGjKd/s681/DE8B6323-2482-4157-A764-E6D1AC370E01.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="462" data-original-width="681" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFh6hGshcqtLBXHZeI4sfrb8HKGkahf4WYCPoHS2fxnna3VywXSgxYEWclk-_epIDQBvjLs_WCrxSvg4RWj_OeArz_HuOcGXxhyVw5XgGVfxA-7a03UbVkX8CY20fqlVI0a88_U_KUGjKd/s320/DE8B6323-2482-4157-A764-E6D1AC370E01.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">FYI- if you use a blow dryer to melt the ice the colors don't seem to be as vibrant as if you let the ice melt on its own.</div></div><br />Students created their designs in Photoshop then turned in a jpeg so I could import it to Silhouette studio and cut it out with my portrait on heat transfer vinyl. I learned to order the easy weed vinyl in the future and to do a small test cut to check the depth and number of passes required.

They ended up working on this while I was teaching remotely with one of my kids in quarantine so I was glad I had created the slides presentation and made a video to demonstrate the steps of the service art project. The students learned about the history of Veterans Day before creating mixed media poppies to present to a veteran that they know or one in our community. <p></p><p><iframe allowfullscreen="true" frameborder="0" height="299" mozallowfullscreen="true" src="https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/e/2PACX-1vSaibzS0_MPD6LRJOIgCVwFl8CG6z2Rk57PDe_XF_egCHpBKe1zAJYGYiU7WZmwArRrVc4UpI-pfOfB/embed?start=false&loop=false&delayms=3000" webkitallowfullscreen="true" width="480"></iframe></p><p>To make the poppies, students chose a small piece of matboard as a base and drew a stem with colored pencils. They tore red tissue paper into petal shapes and glued those down before adding a black button in the center. I think this could be done with a wide range of ages. It took my 8th graders about two class periods since we took the time to watch videos and participate in the discussions.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/fdW0V8Sph44" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;">Next, the students used Canva to create graphics to share something they learned.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjm3N9RCQuYLsRYmkLlJdIcGrzOkTZ5XtEBH18kjTeYuZ4BTgfcCWKhDqiRdGWJlUETY705reX9_PFjZ78TOVpmOnHhkbR5TZ3hxhmrUWOmai_gJnwMk2YX5hu-KvatrrRQZcCPm-s31ClT/s827/7D30A9C3-5DAE-4262-ACFB-A78A93F222CC.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="826" data-original-width="827" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjm3N9RCQuYLsRYmkLlJdIcGrzOkTZ5XtEBH18kjTeYuZ4BTgfcCWKhDqiRdGWJlUETY705reX9_PFjZ78TOVpmOnHhkbR5TZ3hxhmrUWOmai_gJnwMk2YX5hu-KvatrrRQZcCPm-s31ClT/s320/7D30A9C3-5DAE-4262-ACFB-A78A93F222CC.jpeg" width="320" /></a><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzgjvNuYwoS-RKOZI1EV0G2-0sUEPYOtdDQ2hYm5UVD4RVQWMNAk9DGMgTnb4UnRud3mrntBzxsvUhYjT7gaOm2BQCk6xiunMgO4hJS1D_IxLfNu9MbmP3EIfQaaDeHMVjoyubQ7YsWExZ/s828/45B906FE-D219-4359-B751-6F0B095C453E.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="808" data-original-width="828" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzgjvNuYwoS-RKOZI1EV0G2-0sUEPYOtdDQ2hYm5UVD4RVQWMNAk9DGMgTnb4UnRud3mrntBzxsvUhYjT7gaOm2BQCk6xiunMgO4hJS1D_IxLfNu9MbmP3EIfQaaDeHMVjoyubQ7YsWExZ/s320/45B906FE-D219-4359-B751-6F0B095C453E.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqkrZwdDfpelN93XkRUM4UO5boHT_S1aPIRirFub9o2SCG7isGu5RZ_xddDM_1ckbdhiW1UQY978xNUMANRRe3CZYWaZj19dAADBaUHFuVRUpOcnbwCYTQhPklAhREabLpwmUdR6A_ET5q/s827/EDE9977E-4E38-4A21-BA2E-7178787496C4.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="818" data-original-width="827" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqkrZwdDfpelN93XkRUM4UO5boHT_S1aPIRirFub9o2SCG7isGu5RZ_xddDM_1ckbdhiW1UQY978xNUMANRRe3CZYWaZj19dAADBaUHFuVRUpOcnbwCYTQhPklAhREabLpwmUdR6A_ET5q/s320/EDE9977E-4E38-4A21-BA2E-7178787496C4.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgfsAMUlwEXcG8CJN9MaQDFCjQ8p-_O5Ka7gJFlOY0tq2NdKVO-pODjpDtHa28A8_gEr2DU3CN5G8aJp37mKR6iZmu2qHZt5_Z7Yap4-97_AAzsOhnX1hNcrU8LA5K0YEg0W79LeTcbY35/s829/B303B57A-32D1-4527-AD32-DA02BC3A92E6.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="829" data-original-width="827" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgfsAMUlwEXcG8CJN9MaQDFCjQ8p-_O5Ka7gJFlOY0tq2NdKVO-pODjpDtHa28A8_gEr2DU3CN5G8aJp37mKR6iZmu2qHZt5_Z7Yap4-97_AAzsOhnX1hNcrU8LA5K0YEg0W79LeTcbY35/s320/B303B57A-32D1-4527-AD32-DA02BC3A92E6.jpeg" /></a></div></div><p></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/" class="pin-it-button" count-layout="horizontal">Pin It</a>
