20 Little Children Are a Big Responsibility

The Puppet Theater I built for my classroom is also a blackboard where they draw what I am teaching. The three sided structure
is a where we hang from clothes pins their paintings, etc. to dry.
There are pegs inside where they hang their smocks. I make puppets for them to use to tell their stories. I hang paper containers filled with colorful chalk.
We learn Origami. We marble paper. We paint. We sing. We dance. We draw. We look for the beauty in the world. Most of these children will not have an art experience, in public school. I have one chance to set their hearts on fire for creative expression. They teach me so very much.
