Welcome families! 

As a teacher, my core tenets are:

• Children have incredible creative capacity - my job is to help them trust in that and celebrate in themselves and others.

• Art (of any kind) is never perfect. Artist learn more when things don't go the way they planned. There is power in "oops!"

• We all have different skills, strengths, struggles, and needs. We will all work together to support others and advocate for ourselves.

• Mindfulness can be an important tool to help us all feel a bit of calm in our bodies and brains. 

• The process is more impactful than the product. For every project a child brings home or dance that they perform, there are countless hours of creativity, teamwork, skill-building, bravery, and hard work behind it! 

This web page is mostly an archive of resources from Distance Learning, but will be updated with new resources as they develop.  Grade-level units of study may not reflect what we will be working on in class this year, but would be a great tool if your kid needs a wiggle-break!
