For Immediate Release! From Hannah!
##################
Howard Huts is/was a series of embedded art-works and experiments produced in the woods near Corbett, Oregon in collaboration with 6th graders, high school students and staff of the Multnomah Education Service District’s Outdoor School. This project was initiated in parallel to ArtODS, a pilot project that began to incorporate the arts and creative practices into the existing curriculum and community life at Howard Outdoor School during the Fall of 2011. Both of these initiatives have been generously supported by; Friends of Outdoor School, the Gray Family Fund, the Wieden Family Public Fund and The Starseed Foundation.
Also, thanks to all of the organizers of Open Engagement!
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.
Namanu Plants SLs are practicing their clues with Lime.
I am green like a lime
I am mismatched like a puzzle piece
I am thin like rice paper
I am smooth like shaven cheeks
I am short like Tumi
I am reflected like a mirrorSNOWBERRY
Trees made of books, bones, logs, and stones!

Just written on Namanu Plants Field Study this morning
I am soft like a pillow
I am green like a shamrock
I am tall like a giraffe
I am subtle like a winter wren
I am skinny like a pen
I am feathery like a quillBRACKEN FERN
