Description
Class Experience
This class is taught in English.
Students will improve their writing skills using small, bite sized writing lessons. Combining writing with art allows students to have fun as they learn. Artistic and written expression will both focus on development of creative confidence.
I have been teaching children in both formal and informal settings for 30 years and currently teach private and group Art and ELA classes for homeschool students in addition to Outschool classes.
Students will complete a written journal entry to correspond with the the lesson each week. Proofreading and editing skills will be used. This will allow them an opportunity to practice the new skill given in class and to process their thought on the topic discussed.
Suggested Supplies: • A heavy weight (115# or more) 9"X12" watercolor spiral journal • Watercolor paint set • Assorted paint brushes • Water cup and paper towel • Pencil, eraser and sharpener • Assorted Gel pens • Writing paper • Glue stick • Hairdryer for drying layers of paint
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
50 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
Please note that we will be using a hair dryer to dry paint layers.
