HELLO ARTISTS!! My name is Mrs. Berg, and I am the 5th and 6th grade art teacher here at Hastings Middle School. This is my 10th year teaching art in the Hastings School District! I absolutely love art, but most of all I love helping young artists learn to think, create, and experiment like artists! My biggest goal as a teacher is to help you grow and feel more comfortable creating art. You'll learn very fast that it is OK to make mistakes, learn from mistakes, take risks, and critically challenge your thinking. I hope I can help you explore the world of art and lead you to new art experiences! I can't wait to get to know you and begin our adventure!
