Despite the challenges of online learning, the students in my practicum class were able to create some stunning artworks for their portfolios! If you'd like to take a look, I created this slideshow to help showcase their work:

I had the opportunity to view Celmins's artwork at the #AGO last summer. Her rendering of natural environments continues to captivate me. I definitely recommend taking a closer look at this #workoftheweek

Today’s online lesson: using quotes from our novel study to learn about compound sentences 👍🏻 #ESL #onlinelearning

This week my students and I joined in on the #gettychallenge by recreating famous works of art using household items 👩‍🎨 Such a fun way to learn about different artists! #onlinelearning #teachingfromhome

[Amy S @Ms_Skodak_]

Engaging in some professional development to continue my learning despite these uncertain times. I’m looking forward to this webinar and I encourage my fellow teacher candidates to check it out as well ☺️

[Amy S @Ms_Skodak_]

@CNyentap @ModoYogaOrleans I just enrolled last night! Love it!💕

[Amy S @Ms_Skodak_]

Finally posting these photos from last week’s gesture drawing class :) Students learned how to capture movement and posture quickly by using observation and dynamic lines ✍🏻

Filmed this quick tutorial for setting up a darkroom now that I've learned how to develop my own photo negatives 📷#PedEL

[Amy S @Ms_Skodak_]

Had a great time touring the @OttawaArtG this afternoon ☺️

[Amy S @Ms_Skodak_]

Developed more photos in the darkroom today! This week I took a step back from architecture and practised photographing people. Some examples of negative and positive images shown below. #PedEL #whatlearninglookslike

[Amy S @Ms_Skodak_]

@EducatorJess Thank you ☺️

[Amy S @Ms_Skodak_]

Some of my scanned photo negatives that have been inverted into a positive image! #PedEL
