The session was lead by Beatrice Coron who showed us her incredible work and lead our afternoon workshop. The whole day was excellently orchestrated and the work in the gallery very motivational. Ms. Coron basically walked us through her process of creating cut paper pieces and made the ideas presented in the workshop easily transferable to the classroom. After leaving the workshop David Mahl and I created a lesson for our introductory art classes based on what we had experienced at MAD. We had students create a self portrait in the cut paper style of Beatrice Coron. The whole project was a success. Every student was deeply engaged in their work and every student finished their work. I have never had such a successful project. The quality of the work was also excellent. I think working with the knife, and we did use exacto knives, gave the students a sence of respect not only for the tool they were working with but for the work they were producing. David and I have many beautiful pieces of student work displayed around the school. I have also entered some of the students' work in the Scholastic Art Awards and the student show at MOMA. Wish them luck. Catherine and MAD Museum thank you for an excellent and relavent teacher's professional development day.
