About Me

Miss Packham: I am beginning my third year teaching Art to grades K-9 at a wonderful charter school. Blogs by other Art teachers make my lesson planning so much easier and much more fun! I love having a whole online group of art colleagues. I hope to be able to share some ideas that are worth trying out in your own classroom. Some of my ideas are original and some of the ideas on this page are ones that I have borrowed and tweaked a little to fit my lesson objectives. Feel free to borrow anything you see here and if you do, I would love to see your results!
