Here are some pictures of the art room. The tables are set in a u-shape around the interactive white board and document camera. There is a wall of windows for drawing from natural light and a bulletin board that will feature student work by grade level. The kiln room is next to the supply closet- very convenient! On the days when we have classes that are not part of the regular schedule, there is a self-guided center. The center contains how to draw books, exercise sheets, color paddles, elements and principle flashcards, art postcards to critique, and children's art books. I am so happy about restoring this space to its original purpose, and grateful to be teaching full time in one school. =)

About Me
- Meche Farah
- Michelle "Meche" Farah; I have a BFA in Painting and Illustration and Art History Minor from The Savannah College of Art and Design. Before I discovered a love to teach, I worked in interior design, and film production. My teaching certification is from Jacksonville University. This is my 13th year as a teacher and 4th year at Fort Caroline Middle. I teach Art History and sculpture. I am a professional decorative painting artist and a former board member of NeFAEA- Northeast Florida Art Educators Association. I am an active FAEA- Florida Art Education member and attend state conference every year. I have also attended nationals conference several times. My FAVORITE project is "Recycle-Transformation" which simply means going green and making old items new and appreciated. Our FUTURE is in our hands, I include recycled materials in student projects. In my art program students practice the disciplines of art history, art production, art aesthetics, and art criticism. It is not only important to make and learn about art but how to discuss it and bring value and meaning to it. Thanks for viewing our art blog, we are glad you stopped by!
