Art Night

Tonight was my school's family art night.  Nights like this give parents and students an opportunity to spend time together.  The kids and their parents were able to come together and create origami, gyotaku fish prints, thumbprint animals, henna, and artist trading cards.  I loved seeing my students come through with smiles on their faces, showing me the crane they just folded or the creatures they made from their thumbprint.  I am incredibly thankful for the teachers that helped me make this event possible. While it requires a lot of planning, extra time, and extra help, seeing the kids being excited about art is all worth it.
