It was going to be a long day…but a very good day. It started again early, after breakfast we were picked up at the hotel at 7:40AM so we could be at school for the first class which began at 8:00AM. Mrs. Frank had previously volunteered to teach two sixth grade art classes, and it was arranged it for the first two periods today. Mrs. Frank prepared a PowerPoint about American artist Georgia O’Keefe Tuesday evening, and it was used to introduce O’Keefe’s work. Her lesson was also designed to have students to replicate O’Keefe’s style. Mrs. Frank’s presentation was outstanding. It delighted the students and teachers who observed it both periods. After the lesson she shared other PowerPoint presentations that she had previously prepared about the art program at AMSB. For the next 90 minutes, Mrs. Frank was invited to work with art teacher Zhang Huifang. Mrs. Frank shared many examples of student work from Bethany. Mrs. Zhang also showed Mrs. Frank how to paint Chinese art forms. During the time that the two art teachers exchanged ideas and student work, I took advantage of the time to take some photographs of the many buildings on the large school campus.
