Class Experience

Ms. Stephanie has created this small, multi week art class for first and second graders based on her incredibly popular Kindergarten Art. Each week Ms. Stephanie will lead students through a new and exciting art lesson. Fabulous Firsties and Super Seconds will expand their knowledge of art, make connection to reading, math and science through art and expand their creative experiences in this class.  Adults can also expect learners to show growth in their fine motor skills, craftsmanship, attention to details and continue to grow their language and social skills as the class progresses.  

Each week Ms. Stephanie will lead students through an opening exercise to help us focus and set intentions for our creative making time together. Then, we will dive right into our learning activity inspired by 2-3 artworks by our inspiration artist & focused on a particular element of the week. Ms. Stephanie uses visuals, spoken and hand signs as well as the screen share and physical demonstration techniques to help learners of all learning styles. At the end of class each student will have the opportunity to show and share their work as they are willing and comfortable doing so.

Please note: This class is an 8 week course. Topics covered are the same as the ongoing class with a similar title. The difference is in this multi week course students will have the opportunity occasionally work on 2 week projects AND consistently meet with the same group. It is titled session 2 because I create follow up sessions that run throughout the traditional school yr.
