This Weeks Best Selfies! LOL

10/31/2014

 
PictureMy Favorite! Love the composition of this one!
My classroom does not have any computers for my students to use so when they need to Google an image or draw from one of their own photos I allow them free access to all my  personal computers and mobile devices. My iPad and phone is passed around the room constantly. 

You know that you live a really 'clean' life with nothing bad to hide when your students have open access to your cell phone, iPad, personal computer and teacher computer!

But, of course, there is a price to pay for this generosity on my part. Every night before I go to sleep, I routinely delete all the selfies that they take during the day. I have to admit, there is usually a smile on my face the whole time that I am deleting. Some nights I delete up to 30-40 selfies off my iPhone 6...I kid you not! 

So...since all of you love to fill my iCloud to overflowing and put your beloved teacher through this nightly ritual, I decided to save my favorites for a weekly 'selfie exhibit'! Yes, I will weekly make a slide show of my favorite selfies of the week. Kind'a like...Letterman's Top Ten. So, here you have it..Ms. B.'s favorite selfies and usies of the week. Enjoy! All my love, Ms. B. 
P.S. I have no idea why this site does not allow me to rotate the photos...sorry!

    I am an art educator and  a professional artist. I write this blog to guide my students in  (SEL) social, emotional, and academic development. S.E.L. is the District of Columbia Public School's priority because we believe that we must educate the whole child.
