Hi Mrs. Knight! I am a fellow art teacher blogger at DreamPrayCreate.com and I have not ventured into the ATC realms but I just recently got the stuff for it and I was wondering if you would be interested in honoring me and my high school artists with our first trade. I don't really know how this works but I figure the best way to do this is to just jump right in and I noticed from your map that you don't have Maryland filled in just yet and since I am in Maryland, that would take care of it for you! If this isn't how the ATC works and there is some kind of forum to join it, I would so appreciate it if you let me know where I could find it. Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteHey there, we would love that. That's how I got started too, with Mini Matisse and I had no idea what I was doing but I learned by experience! Only thing is that my curriculum is jam packed for the remainder of this semester. Can I put you on my list for next year's trade? Send me your email and I'll send you some specifics. I know my kids would love to trade with older kids, so thanks for your interest!
DeleteI am also an art teacher interested in getting involved in trading with other schools. How did you get in contact with all the other schools and would you be interested in trading with my 4th grade students next year. We have 4 sections of 4th grade.
ReplyDeleteMary, I published a blog past last year asking for participants. Can you email me at knighth@fultonschools - I compile my requests there and I can add your email. I may do things a little differently this year, because I want to develop pen pals.
DeleteOops, I forgot the .org at the end of my email address.
