Do you love to draw? Do you love to color? Do you like making new friends? Do you love Squishmallow? Do you love cute baby animals? If your answer “Yes” to all of these, then this is the PERFECT PERFECT PERFECT class for you! It is my pleasure to bring you this amazing, fun, and super easy drawing class I know your learner will love! In this class we will focus on easy, beginning drawing styles by drawing Squidhmallow Pokémon’s and Cute, Baby Pokémon’s. This class is taught by a Masters in Arts teacher (16 years in the classroom) and designed to be so much fun that your student doesn’t even realize you are “learning”. Your teacher was also a performer for Disney for many years too; so there is a fun, entertaining element to this class you won't find in others. Besides all of that, your teacher lives Internationally and teaches children of many different cultures and ethnicities! I hope to make this class easy and successful for any learner. Here's the deal, just click the "start" button and go enjoy some alone time for the next 30 minutes. You've worked hard, let me handle it from here. :) ------------------------------------------- What to expect in this class: - Start the class with a quick meet and greet - Share time with your new friends. ("What did you did today/this weekend?") - Draw time (super easy step-by-step instructions on how to draw) - Share your drawing with the class (builds confidence. The instructor will correct any mistakes in a positive way.) - Color time. (Your instructor will guide you through ways to color. However, students are free to follow along or color however they choose. It's their picture and we celebrate freedom of creativity and expression in this class.) - Share time (show us your finished photo!) - "Goodbyes" (the sad part...until next week!) --------------------------------------------- What does your child gain from this class: - BUILD CONFIDENCE AND PRIDE (A child's drawing class can give children an extra boost of confidence. When they realize they have the ability to draw, their self-confidence increases in all aspects of their lives. You may have notice 3 share times; this is to get your child talking and communicating with strangers and promoting a positive environment for confidence to grow) - PROBLEM SOLVING SKILLS (While children are learning how to draw, they are also learning problem-solving skills. Children who grow up learning to draw become effective problem solvers as adults) - LEARN HOW TO FIX MISTAKES (A child's art class gives your child the fundamentals of drawing, but they also learn how to fix mistakes or look at the picture a new way.) - FINE MOTOR SKILLS (This allows for better handwriting) - HOW TO DRAW AND COLOR (great for being more perceptive while also using shapes and sizes to create beautiful images) - EXPRESS EMOTIONS (children who draw become more empathetic adults. Some children express their emotions through drawing better than they do with words.) - APPRECIATION FOR THE ARTS (Drawing classes not only give children the knowledge to draw better, but they also allow children to be able to understand and appreciate the arts better) - CALMING AND FOCUS (A child's drawing class can be an incredibly calming experience for some children. Many artists believe that drawing is a moving meditation that allows them to work at their own pace and in their own imagination. Children who draw have the ability to escape from the many stressors in life with just a pencil and a paper.) - SOCIAL SKILLS (A child's drawing class can be a great way to increase your child's social skills. Drawing alongside someone else, in person or virtually, is a great bonding experience.) ------------------------------------------- SCHEDULE Each class is designed so that new drawing and motor skills are worked on within their photo. Week one: June 28 to July 4 - Pikachu Week two: July 5 to July 11 - Bulbasaur Week three: July 12 to July 18 - Eevee Week four: July 19 to July 25 - Mew Week five: July 26 to August 1 - Charizard Week six: August 2 to August 8 - Scorbunny Week seven: August 9 to August 15 - Jigglypuff ------------------------------------------- WHAT WILL YOU NEED: - blank white paper - pencils (please no pens...we might need to erase things) - eraser - pencil sharpener - colors (markers, crayons, colored pencils, but no paints.) That's all! Easy! Right? I look forward to meeting you and helping your learning draw and color their favorite Pokemon! ----------------------- IMPORTANT INFORMATION: (Flex option: Due to very busy and changing schedules, some choose this option for learning. Some learners sign up for this class and do not attend the meeting. Instead, they will receive a recording of our class and do it on their own time. After your finish your drawing, please take a photo and send to me so I can give you positive feedback. *Please remember that if you decide to do this, OUTSCHOOL will unenroll you from the class after 3 weeks of not attending. Therefore, you will need to sign up again every 3 weeks.) ***PLEASE KNOW: Your child does not need to speak English to do this class! Please just remind me in our chat box during the beginning of each class. ***Please feel free to join and leave the club whenever you want. However, seating is limited so if you leave for a week, I can not guarantee there will be an available seat when you return. ***If a schedule conflict happens or if you are going on vacation, please do not cancel. I will have other times that I can switch your Pokemon fan to for that week only. ***Sometimes drawing takes longer for some students. With this in mind, sometimes the class can be 40 minutes long. I will try my best not to let it go any longer than this. ---------------------------------- ----------------------------------
