Syllabus: Notes from an Accidental Professor | Lynda Barry

This book was SO much fun. If you‘re a teacher, journaler, artist, writer, or looking for any interdisciplinary course content, this is the book. She has her students drawing, reading, writing, remembering poems and creating their own books in composition books. It‘s just wonderful!

dabbe @JanuarieTimewalker13 I've tried, but I find I can't come up with good ideas. Maybe I could just copy yours! 💙🩵💙 7mo

JanuarieTimewalker13 @dabbe sincerely, it‘s within you. Syllabus would help you. She has some fun ideas. I start with what I‘m thinking and what‘s going on or an observation or a dream or anything. As far as decorating, there‘s so much fun stuff out there!! I‘ve used cut outs from BookPage, Real Simple, WorldWildlife Fund…a lot of free stuff. What‘s you start, it just takes over and you get to tap into the creativity that is sometimes lost once childhood is over. (edited) 7mo

JanuarieTimewalker13 I‘ve even used wrappers, and pieces of old books, etc. for the markers, stickers, washi, there‘s so many places to get stuff you do t even have to leave the house. My top 3 I would say is Stationery Pal, JournalSay, Jet Pens. Also a lot of fun stuff on Etsy 7mo

JanuarieTimewalker13 If you go on YT, there are tons of channels to view and some people even use journaling prompts…I think Helen from TheCoffeeMonsterzCo has prompts available somewhere. 7mo

dabbe @JanuarieTimewalker13 I'll check it out! Thanks! 💙🩵💙 7mo

Lynda Barry taught me how to love the intersection of drawing and writing in this amazing book.

#day4 if #riotgram #riotgrams is #Journal. I don't know if this means someone's published journal or mine, but it looks like most #littens are showing their own. I don't keep a journal proper, but I have info dump notebooks and conference notes. And some art journals, not pictured. @bookriot
