  • Cardboard Beetle Project

    By kattyk66 on

    We are starting this project next week and I can’t wait. The kids are excited and my ppt is ready to go. They are upper levels so they will have to chance to make adaptions to the designs or create their own net. The ppt included leads us through each step in a clear and fun way. I had trouble (which I learned was from my end) and the customer support was so kind and encouraging with suggestions that eventually led to being able to open and use the ppt. They didn’t have to stick through it with me all of the way but they did right to the end. Thank you tons. I will be back!

    Sarah Crowther – The Arty Teacher

    I set up The Arty Teacher because I have a passion for my subject that I want to share with other art teachers around the world.

    I have been a high school art teacher for over 20 years, so I understand what it’s like to be in front of a class of students, often with very different abilities and attitudes.

    I wanted to develop resources that would help teachers to bring out the best in every student in every class. I also wanted to free-up staff from time-consuming lesson preparation to let them focus instead on delivering exciting, motivating, dynamic lessons, supported by excellent resources.
