US Grade Kindergarten - 3
The class consists of two parts. In the first portion of the class, students will attend a very unusual party made out of famous paintings by 20th century European artists, like Joan Miro, Paul Klee, and Rene Magritte. Students will collect clues as they "travel" through the paintings. The clues will be used to escape from the party. In addition, children will be encouraged to use their imagination, make inferences, and participate in discussions of presented art. In the the second portion of the class, students will make an open-ended craft inspired by the creatures they "met" at the party as well as materials they prepared for the craft. Class is appropriate for (𝐂𝐄𝐅𝐑: B1, B2, C1, C2)
Learning Goals
Students will:
• learn what surrealistic art is
• practice their observation skills
• use their imagination and creativity
• exercise their fine motor skills while working on an art project

Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a graduate of Temple University in Philadelphia with bachelor degree in Psychology. Also, I studied Early Childhood Education in Israel and Ukraine.
Before I started teaching on Outschool, I've being teaching creativity classes inspired by classical music and fine art in afternoon preschool program working with Pre-K through 2 Grade children. Earlier, I was a homeschooling mom for 7 years.
I believe that childhood is the best time to inspire human creativity. By regularly exposing children to works of art and classical music as well as helping kids to process their experiences through games, crafts, and dramatic play, adults have an opportunity to cultivate their creativity.
I LOVE reading books in general and children's literature in particular. I think there are so many great and beautiful kids' books waiting to be discovered. I also love co-creating with the kids: bouncing my ideas of theirs.
