Приєднався 24 січ 2013
Welcome to my channel everyone!
I am the 7th Grade Art teacher at Troy Middle School located in Plainfield, Illinois and started this channel to support and provide resources for my current middle school Art students. It is referenced daily by them and most of the projects you see shared here have additional supplemental materials such as written Google Slide directions or other assignments that are issued to students as well. I am happy to share these resources with anyone - just ask!
I recently started another channel where I'm working specifically on creating all sorts of content for middle school Art students. This channel features projects and skills that we do not have time to complete in my current classroom or go beyond what we cover in our current curriculum. Link is below if you'd like to follow along on my journey there.
