Artsjunktion, Junktion, What's Your Function?

I finally had a chance to experience Artsjunktion today. Teachers in the TDSB can visit this wonderful place (located in the basement of Ossington School) and stock up on odds and ends from manufacturers, stores, and other places. I loaded up on a number of things, including a stack of film transparencies that looked like they were used for advertising in the '70s and '80s. I know already that they'll come in handy in our study of Light. My son also found a toy hammer and a brand new coffee canister from Tim Hortons. He's already using the canister to house his rock collection. 
Check out some the pictures of my haul on the sidebar. I hope to soon have pictures up featuring the beautiful things created with these off-beats and pieces.
