I will briefly introduce students the differences between cartoon/kawaii style art and realistic art. . After this introduction we will have a discussion and share what our favorite underwater animal is and why. If several students share the same creature that creature will be the drawing subject of the class, if not a creature will be selected from a wheel. Students will then be taught how to draw an underwater creature from a list of selected creatures such as: crabs, octopuses, dolphins, whales, fish, jelly fish, turtles, and more. As we draw together I will share interesting facts and warm students up to discussing and sharing what they know about the animal too. After we walk through the steps to draw our animal we will learn different techniques to color our artwork. If there is left over time we will start the process again and learn a new animal.
Learning Goals
Students will be able to produce a drawing of an underwater creature.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Master's Degree in Education from Western Govenor's University
Does your child struggle with expressing themselves or communicating with adults and other children? I earned my masters degree developing fun and engaging curriculum that teaches children foundational communication skills. In all of my classes, your kids will become better communicators while learning fun skills from art and science to math and reading. My classes will be offered in small groupings to ensure that all my students needs are met. Those that need to be challenged will receive more engagement and those that need more help will find the support they need.
I am a certified Elementary Teacher with a Masters in Curriculum Design and Instruction from Washington Governor's University. I have been an elementary teacher for four years, one year in second grade and the other three as a fifth grade teacher. For the last year, I have been engaging students in fun online teaching. I love all aspects of being a teacher but my favorite is watching my students gain confidence and independence in class. In my free time, I freelance as a photographer, a graphic designer, and shoe designer. Yes, I designed and sold custom patterned shoes! You could say art is one of my three passions, the others being teaching and my two adorable puppies who you may get to see in class!
