Well, another school year came to a close. What valuable lessons did I learn from Covid Learning? 1. I really dislike technology. 2. Students don’t take the time to read instructions. 3. Relationships are extremely important. 4. There are NO ART EMERGENCIES! I have to say that my Grade 11’s were rock stars. Out of 35 students, I had at leas 30 consistently engage with me. Sadly, the Grade 12’s and 10’s not so much. Return to school in the fall will be very interesting. My take on it- I am not going to worry about what I have no control over and I will adapt to whatever happens.
The following work has been inspired by things that I miss since Covid and the world around me. Being able to make art has been very therapeutic for me!
