Description
Class Experience
This class is presented in a book club format. Student WILL ABSOLUTELY NEED a copy of the book in some format. We will not be reading the book during live class meetings. Students will read the book on their own outside of class as well as complete assigned homework via a goole forms document. This class is for kids who love dragons, the Warriors book series, and who also love to draw. Each week we will share our perceptions and take-a-ways from the chapters we read the previous week.

Students will become comfortable discussing their observations about the book with each other. Students will answer specific questions about the text. Students will learn specific drawing techniques directly related to the text they are reading. Students will be given practice in giving and receiving feedback on their artwork. Though sharing their work is not required, students will be invited to share their work with their classmates.
I am an artist and photographer specializing in fine art, photography, and art education. I am also an avid reader and I love to discuss books and draw out my ideas and perceptions from them. In addition, I have been a homeschool educator for 16 years. I have taught children's art classes privately and through local after school and children's museum programs. Her photography has appeared in Parents Magazine and numerous photography blogs. I enjoy finding connections between things that don't seem connected upon first glance. To do that, I divide things down to their simplest parts and look for similarities. As a result I am able to break down seemingly complicated projects into simple step by step lessons. I also have a great appreciation for irony in art and life and try to infuse humor and silliness in my lessons and in my own work as well.
Homework will consist of reading the assigned chapters, creating questions based on the reading and completing any unfinished drawings. ****NOTE TO PARENTS*** This is primarily an art class in a book club environment. It is NOT a literary analysis class.
