Last week of Distance learning!

Hello Timberwolves,

First of all, I want to congratulate you on completing another school year.  I also want to congratulate you on completing art projects virtually.  I am thankful that we can connect through technology. I love opening my mailbox and receiving pictures of your masterpieces.  I hope art has been a way for you to express your emotions, feelings, and a way to pass the time.  I know it has for me!  For those of you wondering about your art and when you will get it, I plan to distribute art when we return for the next school year.  If you are a 6th grader, I will send out more information about picking up your art portfolio also at the beginning of the new school year.  If you have a younger sibling, I will send your art home with them.

Lastly, I miss you all very much!  I miss teaching art in the classroom and seeing your smiling faces.  We will get there soon! Take care and have a safe & memorable summer!

Love,

Mrs. Adamos
