1/2 way through day one

Let me just tell you how much I love choice so far. My Students are completely revved up about it. My room is immaculate (no new centers unless this one is clean). They can't wait to open more centers! We are making our folders and they are enjoying decorating them to their liking using only drawing media.

The fifth graders did a journal writing excercise after art, here's an excerpt from one of my favorites:

"It was fun, it wasn't boring to me because I enjoy art. I love art. I live on art. Everyday I have to draw something it is just so fun. Art. Art. Art"
