I am saving the thread. I would LOVE to put one sample
of your student work on IAD with just a brief "what
you did to make it work". Folks are ALWAYS searching
for new drawing ideas. Here is one that goes for ALL
grade levels. Any more takers? - just send me one
image for the "plan"
This is what Getty ArtsEdNet is all about. I want IAD
to show the results of the sharing.

P.S. Well --- back to Zues and all of his
buddies....I'm doing Ancient Greece for hubby today. -
everything relating to Odesseus. Hubby is
"comprehensive " in his teaching (English). Matt went
back to school today.
