WHAT'S IN STORE FOR MY CHILD?

THIS IS THE PLACE TO FIND OUT WHAT IS GOING ON IN YOUR CHILD'S CLASSROOM!

Here is what is in store for your grade...

K will be focusing in on the elements of art, including lines, colors, and shapes. They will be utilizing crayons, colored pencils, and markers to start off with. Gradually they will be moving into watercolor paints when they begin their study of autumn leaves.

Grades 1 & 2 are beginning their school year off with a study in lines and color schemes. They will then be utilizing that knowledge to transition into self portraiture.

Grades 5 & 6 have kicked off the year with an in depth study of the Berlin Wall. Through discussion of artistic symbolism and the history of the wall, they will be able to formulate their own ideas and create an end project--- their own pieces of the Berlin Wall. Their theme will be freedom and what it means to them.  I am working closely with Mr. Moss our social studies teacher to work hand in hand with his curriculum.

I'm very excited for a new school year and look forward to seeing you all around the neighborhood.
Don't forget to check your child's ARTSONIA account regularly as there will be many updates as we complete art projects. If you need their account name and/or password, let me know and I will foward it to you as soon as possible.
