Students will learn about major artists, art movements, and/ or art cultures.  Students will also learn how to manipulate at grade appropriate levels various art media including clay, paint, colored pencils, and oil pastels.

I have a Bachelor of Arts in Visual Arts Education, am licensed by the state of Indiana to teach art to grades pre-k through 12, and have worked in education since 2008. Each project is designed to meet (a) particular art standard(s) for most U.S. states. In addition, for professional development to renew my teaching license and to receive a teaching license when teaching in North Dakota, I took an additional 4-credit college course on Native American studies.

For the art history portion of the class, I use art history texts such as Art History by Mary Stokstad, art museum sites like that of the Walker Art Center, interviews from the discussed artists, and interviews from individuals who have lived in the discussed countries.
