Tomorrow the installation of the Pizza Hut will come down from Field Work and Hannah will go away back to Toronto. So in case you were not able to see it, there are some pictures of the installation here.

PS, Hannah has been involved with this project called The Pedagogical Impulse working with Helen Reed for a woman named Stephanie Springgay at University of Toronto’s teacher education program. The panels and workshops that they did at Open Engagement were SO NEAT. Today they made a human concept map with 1-inch buttons pinned on everyone’s clothes, and a bunch of blaze orange nylon twine. And in Toronto, they have been making an edition of chocolates with a class of 6th graders. GOODBYE HANNAH I’LL MISS YOU

I’m not sure why I haven’t done this already, but I made an online slideshow of a selection of student photographs from Fall 2011 at Howard ODS. I’m hoping to put together a printed book of them so each student can have one. Additionally, Kim Silva acquired 8 digital cameras for ArtODS, and I made a cue card so that any staff member could teach with it. Cosmos, a PL at Howard, has already taught several photo recreations this session, and I’m so glad. Anyway, Old News! But now it’s on the internet.
