Day 5 of half term gelli print experiments. Tried some fluorescent pink in these, and love how it has altered the other colours when layered.

We need a Mandy Barrett art room in every primary school with a specialist art teacher teaching creativity across all the subjects to fortify children’s intelligence in the age of AI

Update! In the last 4 weeks I’ve not used a single glue stick in any of my art lessons. I made these glue sponges(not my original idea)and students have loved them. No more dried out glue, missing lids or mouldy melted glue, and a massive saving for my dept budget. Win win ☺️

"He saw that teaching is about being human."
"He loved children & he loved teachers & understood what made them tick."
"How many education directors would know the names of all the new teachers? He'd visit your classroom & later you’d find a postcard or note in your pigeonhole."

Was meaning to blog this but was getting distracted so a rare🧵:
I see 100s of lessons and teachers and it’s clear to me the best teaching appears fluid and artful but is always built on sound techniques deployed with purpose; intentionality; precision.. /n

Couldn’t find my own words to adequately sum up 9 years at the school I’m moving on from this year. Instead I quoted a few from Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young “Teach your children well”. It got a little emotional. https://t.co/E0ZHiYnror
