I am a middle school art teacher, and at times it is as if I do not even exist. I am forced to attend meetings on achievement tests and about core subjects. I can understand how our students can be so boared with the curriculum. I could not agree more with changing things up a little. Although, the change would be wonderful, it would never happen here. We teach to the standardized testing, and that is all. It is not fun, but at least we still have an art program so the students can have a little creative outlet. Bravo to you for taking a stand and exploring new things. Good Luck!
