Drawings from my students

My students often bring me pictures they have drawn or painted, which is very special.  Sometimes we have free drawing time for the last few minutes of art if we finish a project a bit early. Here is an adorable drawing a first grader gave to me at the end of class. He saw this photo of our adopted black lab hanging behind my desk on a bulletin board...
                                                      

 

 

and this is the picture he drew.... I love it!  Artwork made by children is amazing on so many levels, it always makes me smile.
