Post #1: My Intro

My name is Courtney A. Radcliffe, I am 3 months shy of 30 and 8 months shy of graduation. I am slated to embark on the adventures of student teaching in the Fall of 2010--if I get my way--I cannot wait to teach students how to explore their creative side and see the world through a new set of lenses. I am incredibly passionate about education in general, I think anyone who wants to learn, should. One of my favorite inspirational quotes is :" If I can, I should!" To create a statement discussing the world of art and the importance of keeping art education in schools, this blog was created. I invite feedback, lesson plan ideas, daily efforts, stories of students in your art class, and any type of discussion involving art techniques, educational efforts in the arts and your personal view on how important it is to maintain a creative education for our future generations. Thank you for visiting my blog!
Here is a small sample of artwork I have created for various reasons. Soon to follow there will be lesson plan ideas and statistics on art education focusing on the positive effects of art in schools.
