In the Dora the Explorer Activity and Drawing class, students will learn how to draw the characters of Dora the Explorer. In each session students will learn how to draw a character of the story from Dora the Explorer. This will be a class, with a fun and interactive setting. I will host class through live video and also have a wide variety of downloadable coloring pages and activities. My teaching style is a multisensory approach. Utilizing visual, auditory and hands on learning. Students will interact with each other during class and in the last few minutes. This is good for students who would like to become more social. At the end of class, students will receive a certificate as an honorary Dora the Explorer Artist. I will be engaging with the students in each session, with feedback given at the end of day. Completion time of class is 4 weeks.
Learning Goals
Students will learn basic drawing skills, such as the correct pencil, how to choose appropriate colors and the excitement art can bring.
