What is going on in Art Class

Posted: September 11, 2008 by Mrs. Kugelberg in Advanced Arts, Crafts, Exploratory Art, Introduction to Art

The art students are currently going through a unit on color. We are learning about the properties of color and how to use color effectively. The students are applying their knowledge of color while creating a “color creature” (100 points= I grade on effort). I can’t wait to see how they turn out.

P.S. I rarely give homework so most posts will contain information about what your student is doing in art.

Exploratory Art Grades 9 – 12 (Full Year)

Posted: August 27, 2008 by Mrs. Kugelberg in Exploratory Art

This elective is designed to give high school students, independent of their artistic abilities and inclinations, a meaningful introduction to the breadth and depth of visual arts. Students will learn about the fundamentals of art and acquire knowledge of art from other cultures and their history. In this class the students will explore and create both two-dimensional and three-dimensional art forms. This yearlong course can help improve fine motor, problem solving, and critical thinking skills through hands-on experiences. In addition, the students will learn to communicate expressively through the creation of art. Prerequisite: None
