Just get out of the way!

I had one of the best classes ever with my 8th graders . My 8th graders have been painting with acrylics on canvas boards. I have found that sometimes the best teaching happens when I guide the students towards self-expression. then I get out of their way!! If they get stuck, they call "Mizz Mac!" All of the students and their teacher(me) helped one student with developing her awesome painting. Sometimes the only thing the students need is help knowing when to quit, and sometimes it's only help mixing colors or even where to put a color. Mizz Mac
