I am struggling right now between the teacher I want to be and the teacher I am.  I love flipping- I think its great- however the time I have to make videos is limited- and they aren't the videos I want to be making.  Now any flipper will tell you that they don't have to be these great, amazing videos- but the art teacher in me says they should be!

The teacher I want to be makes the kids really think even harder- the teacher I am- does, but not as much as I want them too- I tend to spell everything out a bit much sometimes and I need to make them think more.

The teacher I want to be- does more reflection of their artwork- the teacher I am only does it every once in a while as a class- I reflect with the students all the time- and maybe that is ok- maybe I don't need to reflect as a class- but than again maybe I do!

The teacher I want to be spends time with ALL students- not just the ones struggling or the ones that don't want to be there- sometimes we let the good ones work because they already do a great job...I want to make them greater!!!

The teacher I want to be does art with the students - the teacher I am only does it once a week- I'm so busy with everything else I haven't made time for what I love the most- ART!

The teacher  I want to be needs a clone or a secretary or something I don't know- there just isn't enough of me to go around.

The teacher I want to be wants to turn this art room upside down and start from scratch- but the realist in my head says YOU ARE CRAZY- its not broken!!!  But, I'm not going be to content with teaching like I've always taught- I have to go all in- change it all-  take it and flip it on its head!
