Special Education Art Program at Wallace Elementary School in Hoboken, NJ

I have been teaching at Wallace Elementary School in Hoboken since January 2016. From the Summer of 2021 through June 2025 I taught art for the special education department. My students ranged from pre-k to 5th grade. We explored color, lines, shapes, assorted materials and of course the masters.

I have also taught in the afterschool enrichment and summer programs, Passport to Learning and Leap into Summer at Wallace. Other classes are mixed media arts, fairytale theater, and art exploration for Urban Arts at Wallace.

It has been a rewarding experience. My extensive background in graphic design helps me create fun, colorful and interesting projects for my students to complete.

Below is a gallery showing some of the art projects we have done together. Some are cut paper and others use paint, cardboard, crayons, markers and much more.
