Beginner Level
Fun Facts in Color Theory is an introductory class all about the ins and outs of color. Your child will be learning how color effects everything in our lives. We all might know that color has tints, values and shades, but they also have moods, definitions and companions. In this 8 week course, we will spend 1 day a week learning about the "theory" of color. I love to interact with children, so each class will be interactive on Zoom and last about 55min. At this time, there will be no homework lessons, but I will be encouraging each child to continue learning beyond our class time.
Learning Goals
The biggest goal for my students is for them to learn a deeper understanding of how color works in their lives. Not, just the clothing they wear, but how it works in their moods, emotions and their choices.
