Teaching Rewards

"Tube Sculpture", Alyssa Trocki, grade 11, Deer Lakes High School-National K-12 Exhibit, National Council for the Education of the Ceramic Arts 1020Conference, Philadlephia





Teaching... is a complicated venture entered with the highest of ideals. When I began teaching, last century, I had expectations of myself and of my students. High expectations lead to excellent result! The piece shown above was juried into the National K-12 Exhibit this year!! This is the big leagues for my students. There were 1161 entrants from all states in grades k-12, of which 162 were chosen. She's excited, we're all proud. What can I say?
