Castle in the Classroom: Julia de Burgos Elementary School

Need some inspiration? Here it is! This wonderful teacher is showing kids that they can be an artist no matter what. And she uses James Castle, the self-taught American artist who was born in Idaho, was deaf and poor, and still made his art, as her example. I love how she brings so many elements of things we deal with in the modern world together to show that those are the very things from which we make art.
