Art

I love sharing my passion for art with my students! I introduce them to past and present artists and a variety of artwork all while getting creative and a little messy. I teach using the Elements and Principles of Design. In Kindergarten, we start with the very basics such as line, color, shape, etc. and build upon that knowledge each consecutive school year. We experiment with a variety of art materials and techniques to develop new skills. Then, we incorporate these skills with the knowledge the students already possess. The students learn about planning out a pleasing composition and creating from inspiration, as well as turning mistakes into masterpieces or as I like to call them, "happy accidents". I also like to incorporate other subject matters such as faith, science, literature, nature, etc. into my lessons.
