Children will frustrate and insult you one moment, and then surprise and delight you the next. The very student who
worked herself up into a frenzy a few days ago over the dearth of white people in the 6th grade curriculum, created this amazing Romare Bearden inspired collage as the visual aid for her Black History Month Project. One of her peers tried to initiate a bidding war with me over it because he was that confident that she was going to be a rich and famous artist one day. I agree!
