What's included
1 live meeting
35 mins in-class hours per weekClass Experience
*Scroll Down for Weekly Class List* During each class, students will learn how to draw a simple step-by-step version of Sonic the Hedgehog and his friends. I will take the students on a guided drawing process where they will learn how line and shape can come together to create these adorable characters. Students will be encouraged to add their own creative touches including drawing a background surrounding Sonic to give it a unique style of their own. If time permits, students may trace over over their drawing with a black marker to make it "pop" if they choose and color their drawing. Prior to the end of class, each student will have an opportunity to hold their picture up to the screen so that they can showcase their artwork and be provided with positive and enriching feedback. (Please Note: Every child goes at a different pace while creating artwork. Therefore, some students may not get to finish coloring their drawing during class and will be encouraged to complete it after class ends.)

Teacher expertise and credentials
My name is Stacey Howard and I'm so happy to be a part of Outschool! I am a mom of two wonderful girls, Amaya, age 17, and Lilah, age 14. I attended Florida State University and have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology. I am a certified teacher in the areas of Art K-12, Elementary Education K - 5, ESE K - 12, and I'm also Gifted Endorsed. I have been privileged to be able to teach children from ages 3 thru 16 years old.
My first job out of college was managing a children's photography studio for a few years. It was then that I realized I loved teaching photography and wanted to take my skills further and become a school teacher. Therefore, I have been a certified public school teacher for the past 19 years. It was within the public schools, I found my true passion which was teaching visual arts. I have been fortunate enough to teach art in both the elementary and middle school sectors where I have had the artistic freedom to be able to create my own art curriculum based on the ages and needs of the students. I have also taught at two local art museums throughout the summer for many years.
My teaching philosophy is to convey knowledge of the arts to my students in a fun and engaging way while allowing them to freely explore a variety of mediums and express their own creativity. I believe it is extremely important to relate the art subject matter to real-life context by making a connection between the arts to their day-to-day life and level of understanding. I want my students to feel confident that they can learn life-long skills that can be used way beyond the classroom. Most importantly though, I feel as an art teacher that I’ve been given a platform to create positive change in our world and my mission is to bring optimism, hope, unity, and confidence to our children through the arts.
It is such a gift to have the opportunity to teach amazing children from all over the world. My favorite quote, by Pablo Picasso, is "Every Child Is An Artist" and I can't wait to see the inner artist in each of you!
