In the June Mailbag episode of Art Ed Radio, Tim and Amanda start with an end-of-year discussion, complete with field day stories and a trip to Tim's backyard wildlife sanctuary. They then dive into voicemails and emails on everything from managing unsolicited classroom "donations" to resisting AI tools, as well as teaching students to think critically and creatively. The episode also includes tips on summer art prompts, clever marker organization, and ways to reflect on the year in ways that help us moving forward. And the best part? There are so many listener questions, there is a Part 2 of the Mailbag! Head on over to the Art of Ed Community (link below) in order to watch or listen!
