As I get ready for a new school year, I want to feel more confident and prepared. Although I’ve been teaching for ten years now, I still feel like I’m always doing things last minute. My goal for this year is to have a repertoire of handouts and worksheets that are ready-to-go. Sometimes I need quick 10-15 minute early-finisher activities or even last minute sub plans. My hope is that other art teachers can find my resources helpful as well!
