As you have probably noticed, using French as an inquiry project was not working out. I was no longer engaged or excited to come up with new blog topics each week and this project became something I was dreading to do. To help with that, I decided to change my topic! My new topic is now elementary art projects!

I decided to choose this topic instead since I was having so much fun in my weekly art class. In art, we would get to complete a weekly art assignment for our art portolios. I have not completed an art assignment since I was in Grade eleven, so I am excited at the opportunity to start again.

In this inquiry, each week I am going to try and make a new art piece. I have found a whole bunch of artists and art teachers on different platforms that I will be able to take inspiration from. I have found different, websites, tiktoks, instagram posts, and youtube videos that show how to create different pieces of art.

Since I am making these all myself, I am also going to decide whether I would actually use them within my classroom and give some pros and cons to the different activities. This will just be from my experiences in classrooms and around students. I have never been on a practicum before, so I may decide that these activities are perfect in the future, when I get into a classroom.

I am so excited to share my journey with you and hope you are excited to follow along!
