foolfillment: the blog

So that was the first day back after the break. I was in a really grumpy mood at first, it seemed as though none of them could understand that only one person can drill at once. By the time it got to after lunch though I was feeling much better. I had my third year graphics class for the first of a series of lessons that I have put together completely myself from scratch - with a gradual build up towards my final crit next Wednesday. We had about half a period of discussion on colour theory and emotions associated with colour (a really abstract concept for most kids that age), for all it was very worthwhile it was a bit chaotic and there was far too much shouting out. I couldn’t quite find the right balance between open discussion and everyone shouting. The main disappointment though was when I was trying to get across the idea of receding colours one boy pipes up ‘is that like receding hairlines’ which on it’s own is fine but then the ‘orrible bunch chose to make it personal: ‘like yours sir!’ Little blighters, I’ll get them back for that.
