Introduction HI, This blog is a way of sharing some of the things that are happening in our school art studio. Hope you enjoy it! Miss Knight.
Interests I am a huge believer that participation in the arts enhances student learning across all learning areas. I will post links to research that supports this belief from time to time. I am lucky to be trained as a primary generalist and have had experience in mainstream teaching from year one to seven. I have also taught Ed support, PEAC and adult classes. I say I am lucky because this gives me background knowledge of the whole curriculum and it gives me the ability to see learning opportunities beyond the art curriculum. I plan opportunities to support the focus areas within our school and find spontaneous, point of need opportunities to support and enhance learning in other areas. I am the daughter of an artist and art teacher and the mother of two creative grown up children. I am a visual artist myself and enjoy exploring many different art forms with a particular interest in printmaking, textiles, painting and sculpture. I feel privileged to be able to share both my passions, art and learning with the kids at Palmyra.
