Feild Work
Field work was a lot of fun! I was in a 4th grade class. My partner and I taught the kids about Mountain Men. We taught them the song "Sure Tastes Salty" about Jim Bridger and they LOVED it! Everyday they would say "Can we sing the song again!!!" Our cooperating teacher was so nice, I absolutely loved her.

Visual Arts
Reflection #5
Reflect on what you have learned about visual arts elements and principles, analyzing the art of professional artists, and using children's picture book illustrators as an entrance to both understanding and making art. Please complete this reflection after we have had all of the student presentations in class.
I had A LOT of fun with this section. It was very hands on and my arts journal has expanded greatly. I think in my classroom I will show my students how the illustrators make the art in the children's picture books. I say this because I think it will help the students have a deeper understanding of what is art and more appreciation of books and pictures, and of course it is super fun! My favorite illustrator was the one with the pop up books, Robert Sabuda.
