okay, so i've got this volunteer art teaching job at my local
middle school. incidentally, they are running an urban summer
camp, and i'm delegated to teaching art twice a week (10:45
am-5pm)

we have lots of materials: markers, construction paper, color
pencils, crayons, lanyard, popsicle sticks, but I could only
come up with oh so many lessons where the kids use these
materials.

since this is a "summer camp" the kids don't want to do any
art. they prefer chatting and gossipping even though i've set
up some paints and paper for them to paint with.

i don't think we'll be able to get any more materials. any
suggestions as to how to keep them interested? (some kids just
love art. the others don't care because it's just a free summer
program for them)

we're also going to work on an actual tile mural, but most of
them are not interested in participating in this project.

any advice? thank you!
