ABOUT
The fifth through eighth grade art curriculum will focus on the Elements of Art and the Principles of Design and how these apply to all aspects of art production. Students will be exposed to different art techniques, media, methods and tools that will allow them to create a multitude of work. Interdisciplinary connections, aesthetic, cultural and historical aspects of visual art will also be explored in all of our activities. The majority of the classwork will be hands on art production, but there may be some long-term art research assignments, as well as projects that require students to collect preliminary information and/or items.
