Shelley Elementary Online Art Classroom
Welcome to Shelley Elementary's
online art classroom!
Online Art Show!
You are invited to view the Shelley Elementary Spring 2020 Online Art Show! You can access the art show on a google drive here! A piece of art from each student's portfolio is included!
I value each and every one of our students and I am appreciative of their efforts! This year they learned how to use new tools and techniques. Students were encouraged to be creative and try things outside of their comfort zones. As we switched from in person to online lessons, some projects remained unfinished. Art class is about so much more than a final product and I am pleased to share this artwork as a representation of their learning and creativity this year in art class!
To all of my wonderful students: I believe in you. I value you. I am happy with your efforts! Don't be afraid to try new things and to fail gloriously!
Have a creative summer!
