| Happy 2023!
Winter Wonderland
If you’re reading this while planning, may a candy cane-flavored coffee be in your near future.
If you’re on break, why are you reading this? Go take a nap!
And if you’re back, know that I’m excited to start the year off with you.
2023 is packed with opportunity and I’m here to help you integrate art this year and to feature some of your students' work on our sites!
With my best wishes,
Elizabeth

| Get Out Your Red Pen
Improve a Teaching Poster I’m drafting a teaching poster focused on one of our favorite images to talk about with students, Lily Furedi’s Subway. Would you be willing to take 20 minutes to give me some brutally honest feedback? It would make a huge impact! |
