YSB-About

==

= **Young Sloppy Brush wants to meet your students!** = The star of the award-winning student made movie, [|Young Sloppy Brush]would like to visit your school and meet your students! This collaborative project modeled loosely after the [|Flat Stanley Project] gives you a chance to introduce proper paint brush cleaning, storage, and usage in a fun and creative way to your students while sharing in a collaborative world-wide project. =Here is the movie:= media type="custom" key="4245443" =Here is how the project works!= 1. Print the Poster to advertise your participation in this project! 2. When it's your turn Young Sloppy Brush (the actual star of the movie) along with a Full Quality DVD of his movie will arrive for **one week** to visit with your students. Here are some suggested activities: == 3. **Take a picture*** documenting his stay in your art room (be creative, but only send a photo that has the necessary permissions to be posted online) 4. **Attach the photo** in an email to me at Tricia_Fuglestad@yahoo.com 5. Find the next person on the appointment schedule from the calendar page and **send Young Sloppy Brush off** to his next destination:) 6. I will add a **point to** the map to show that Young Sloppy Brush was at your school! 7. I will add your photograph to the photo album. 8. This is what your YSB travel case looks like. Try to keep it nice for the next person. There is a fold out travel schedule in the passport so you can manually check off your visit on the list and see who receives it next. ===I will be collecting the photos of Young Sloppy Brush on the Album page. Join the Y[|oung Sloppy Brush Fan Club on ArtED 2.0] so we can connect with the group, have some discussions, and keep up to date.===
