The work of art in architecture and interior design. This theme has an obvious connection to the work of art of teaching. If you don’t have a good support system, your structure won’t last. Trying to stay away from the obvious I looked a little deeper into this theme. I thought about architecture and its way of being long lasting. If you build something correctly, strongly, and logically, it can stand the test of time. I looked at teaching that way too. If teachers build the foundation for their students, their learning will be lifelong. In the Susanka article, “The Not So Big House,” she states that, “the secret to finding a sense of home lies in changing the way we have been taught to think about houses and value -- for example, reevaluating the rooms you need in a home, designing a floor plan inspired by today's informal lifestyle, and building to last.” I think about this in teaching. Teachers have to constantly reevaluate the way they are teaching. We have to step back and take it all in at times. We have to ask ourselves, “Is what I am doing actually working?” “Am I reaching all students?”
