Middle School Art
Art in Middle School is a little different than art in Elementary School. We will be stepping away from project based art and learning how to use prior knowledge to make art with more personal choices. Many new mediums will be introduced throughout the year, helping to expand our art knowledge. Connections will be made to each individual's likes, as well as things through our school, city, state and world. The Elements and Principals of Design will be used to help capture our ideas. And, the district, state and national standards will be met. We will also focus on Art History in the manner of answering "Who was the first artist to".
