Class Experience

US Grade Pre-Kindergarten - 2
Beginner Level
During the first part of the class, students will listen to the story that follows two friends who make valentines to their loved ones.  As we discover Renoir's paintings, children will learn a few facts about Renoir and his family. Among other things, we will discuss what makes characters in presented artworks look kind, caring, and affectionate. 

In the second part of the class, students will make an open-ended Valentine's Day craft.

🎨✂️🤩 My goal is threefold: to familiarize children with famous works of art, to inspire creativity, and to make kids realize that they are artists who can make their own choices about their creations. 


PLEASE MAKE SURE TO CHECK THE LIST OF MATERIALS NEEDED FOR THE CRAFT. ALSO, PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT FOR THE CRAFT PORTION OF THE CLASS, PARENTAL GUIDANCE IS RECOMMENDED FOR USING SCISSORS AND OTHER MATERIALS.

Learning Goals

Children will:
•	learn (or review) what artists do
•	learn some information about Impressionism
•	learn some facts about Mary Cassatt
•	practice their observation skills
•	use their creativity throughout the class
•	exercise their fine motor

Other Details

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a graduate of Temple University in Philadelphia with bachelor degree in Psychology. Also, I studied Early Childhood Education in Israel and Ukraine. 

Before I started teaching on Outschool, I've being teaching creativity classes inspired by classical music and fine art  in afternoon preschool program working with Pre-K through 2 Grade children. Earlier, I was a homeschooling mom for 7 years.

I believe that childhood is the best time to inspire human creativity. By regularly exposing children to works of art and classical music as well as helping kids to process their experiences through games, crafts, and dramatic play, adults have an opportunity to cultivate their creativity.

I LOVE reading books in general and children's literature in particular. I think there are so many great and beautiful kids' books waiting to be discovered. I also love co-creating with the kids: bouncing my ideas of theirs.
