Teaching art remotely has been challenging- especially since students may not have art supplies. For Earth day, we are making silly faces using items in our recycling bins. So happy to receive this note that someone out there loved the activity ❤️Mason City Schools

Thankful for my own kids who appreciate me as teacher mom and let’s not forget BOSS. 😂#itsteacherappreciationweek #thankateacher

Thanks Ashley- it is nice to be remembered during TEACHER appreciation week!

We've used some unusual supplies in our remote learning- items from nature, items from our recycling, and this week items from our laundry baskets! Using laundry to re-create famous artworks. My third graders are rising to the challenge! #MasonMoment Mason City Schools

Fourth grade color quilts- exploring color theory and defining analogous colors in a watercolor resist.

Collaborative art is totally my jam. I love when kids work together to create beautiful art work! ❤️

Check out our Comets’ work. They used Ted Harrison art as the inspiration for these amazing pieces. Thank you Kerry Kronenberger for helping our students create these warm and cool landscapes #creativity #KindnessStartsWithME #MasonElementary

Turning 50 is fun when you have co-workers like mine! Thank you all for the lovely yellow gifts, cards and even face masks! So blessed to have you in my life 💛 #KindessStartsWithMe

This young man was so excited to find out he was related to Italian artist Giorgio de Chirico that he did a research presentation for art class today! Way to go Chayse and Nina! #MasonMoment #kindnesssartswithME Sheree Paolello WLWT

It’s Fun Tool Friday! Using our spin art tools designed by our fabulous STEAM teacher, Mrs Vome! 3rd graders are having a blast putting the “A” in STEAM. Mason City Schools #KindnessstartswithME

Tonight Jonathan Cooper hosted a special gallery walk w/ k-12 artists whose art was chosen to be on permanent display during the 21-22 school year @ Mason Central. The talent level is incredible & we’re so grateful for our art educators who nurture & empower our Comets’ creativity!

art teacher interview

These sweet third graders from Mrs. Brunsman’s home room made my day. They all wrote why Art is their favorite special and read me their paragraphs. I got a little teary, not gonna lie. Thanks ladies! ❤️

A Total Eclipse of the Art! Third grade art students are getting excited for the big day next week! #masonmoment #Eclipse2024
