Why Blog?

Why are you interested in blogging? 

online resume, professional documentation of my work, track my progress, almost like a professional “diary/journal”, my pictures, my reflectons/thoughts, if I can be a Customer Service to anyone else interest in the same things, to inspire, 

What blog(s) drew you to the idea of starting your own? 

I don’t remember, I think I was searching art lesson plans and found a few art teachers that had there own, they were posting activities, pictures of student artwork and at the same time, I was having to build my professional college online portfolio, it seemed like common sense to start a blog, that way I could share my “whatever” with whoever and as many people that wanted to see.

What types of blogs do you find most interesting?

the ones that are down to earth, not too “professional”

but still nice quality content and pictures

the ones that feature posts, pics and videos that make me say “man, I want to do that” or “that seems like an interesting individual that I would want to be friends with”, I could learn something from them, you can also tell the blogs that are doing it just to have something to do and the ones that really love what they do and really want to share their passion.

Notes:

Be patient, be consistent, learn...all the time

I LOVE this blog and want to give her as much credit as I can!  

Pertaining to the notes above, I want to keep this as a reminder to myself why I am doing this.  It's one thing to disagree with something, it's another thing to disagree, but then try and improve something you KNOW needs to be improved.  My goal with this blog is to share myself AND the journey that I and my students take to incorporate Art into basically everything.  That our Nation's students are practically begging us to change, to listen to them and to teach them in ways that they can learn and understand.  I absolutely know that through art and projects and hands-on activities with a little sprinkle of 21st century skills and employable accountability, our kiddos will not only be engaged, they will be empowered leaders and change our society today as we know it!  They want to take over, (they probably will anyway), let's do it in a positive, proactive manner that benefits ALL.  

Okay, that's all I have to say about that.  Great, now I'm all worked up!  :)
