Welcome to Color Outside the Lines! My name is Leah and I teach Art. I hope to soon be sharing with you projects that I do in the classroom with my students, projects that I do at home with my children, and projects that I do for my own creative expression and well being.
I am looking forward to sharing my adventures teaching Art with the families of the students I teach as well as the community we live in and the Art Education community at large. Art programs are in jeopardy, and my hope is that Color Outside the Lines will help advocate for those programs by showing the 21st century skills that a well designed art curriculum develops. In addition, being featured in this blog will give my students' art a bigger audience than it would ever see just hanging on the school walls.
I also look forward to sharing with you creations on a budget, making art out of junk, and just fun art things that my kids and I do on a weekend. Stay tuned for photos, samples, ideas, directions, stories, and general musings about art and art education. I hope that you find some inspiration here. Come on in and color for a while- and don't worry about staying in the lines. Let's have some adventures in Art!
