What a great first day of school here at Hickman! I am looking forward to another great year and hope that are former 4th graders had a wonderful first day of middle school!
In an effort to maintain 'with-it-ness' and be as easily reachable to parents and students I have created a Facebook account strictly for educational purposes. You may find me under 'Missy Fravel' (No Missy is not my first name....but I couldn't make an account as Miss Fravel).
I think doing updates, posting photos, etc. will be a great way to keep everyone in the know about the art room happenings! So please add me if you are interested!

Summer Ends
I hope everyone has had a fantastic summer! I know I have enjoyed the time off but I am so looking forward to the upcoming school year! I've been setting up the classroom this week and making a few minor changes here and there to hopefully create a more exciting and organized room!
I really miss having a camera for blogging purposes so I think I am going to put it at the top of the 'To Buy' priority list since a birthday and Christmas are too far away! But I think I still have a few pictures from the camera I borrowed with some art work from the end of last school year. And there are probably some photos from some of my friends with my summer adventures I might share!
This year I would like to use the blog a little bit more, so hopefully I can spread awareness about its existence a little better. I have also been thinking about creating a facebook account strictly for school/education purposes and friending parents or students to help keep them in the know about what's happening in the art room! I also went to a technology workshop this summer so I am trying to incorporate a little more technology this year, firstly by adding a set of student computers to my room (big thank you to Mrs. Thomas for that!), and I am learning how to use twitter and create a classroom website that I might introduce this year.
Anywho, looking forward to another great year! And good luck to all my former 4th graders as they start middle school next week! Miss you!
