Experiencia de clase

Can you name the female African-American poet who served as the Montaukett tribal historian and established and operated her very own school for black artists? Would you like to recognize upcoming cultural heritage events by analyzing poems by Latinx, Indigenous, international and diverse poets around the world? 

Combine art and poetry by compiling your very own portfolio of paintings and poems. During this drop-in course we meet weekly to discuss a poem, its writer and any pertinent background information. The selection of poem is diverse and features classic and contemporary poetry in order to give learners a variety of writing styles and viewpoints. Learners read along with me as I share the poem, and will then be given the opportunity to share any thoughts or opinions on the poem. They may be called upon to share their ideas, either verbally or in the chat. Next, together we paint an image or scene; I will demonstrate my painting during class, but your learner may choose to paint something different! Our paintings will focus on being inspired by the poem, so it is possible that every student's painting will be unique. 

This class focuses on self-expression and building confidence, so I welcome learners of all abilities and skill levels. There is no step-by-step tutorial for learners to follow, but I will be sharing watercolor techniques and ideas. At the end of each class we share our paintings and celebrate how unique and different they are. If the painting is dry, learners can copy the poem onto the painting or on a separate page of their journal. Otherwise they can do this offline, as I will be providing the poem via the classroom page. 

Our weekly schedule for 2024 is as follows. Poems are not in chronological publication order but are chosen to give variety and to compliment various international heritage months and seasons:

This course is a great way to introduce young learners to poetry and fine arts. Students who have taken classes in my Painting Poetry series may be familiar with the process of reading a poem and painting a scene inspired by the poem. I have found this to be an excellent exercise in poetry analysis along with historical context, as well as being a beautiful and gentle way to develop fine arts skills. If your learner has any specific needs or requests please feel free to reach out to me prior to enrolling. I welcome learners of all abilities.

I hope to meet your learner in class and share my love of art and poetry with them!

Metas de aprendizaje

Students will learn to read, discuss and analyze poetry with historical context and critical thinking skills. They will also develop their artistic process and talents as they use prompts and inspiration to design a watercolor scene that compliments the poem of the week.

Otros detalles

Orientación para padres
As we discuss many of these poets their life experiences that inspired their works will be discussed to provide historical context. Some facts may arise that could be troubling or disturbing to a sensitive learner; for example, discussions about cultural appropriation, racism and feminism, tragic deaths of particular poets, etc. These details are handled in an age-appropriate manner and some are not included in the lesson; however, other learners in class may be aware of these details and might bring them up in class, so please consider this prior to enrolling and contact me with any questions.

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
I have been teaching poetry and art (including art history) on Outschool since 2018 and host local workshops in my homeschooling community as well. As a racially diverse professional artist and textile designer I have attended professional development training seminars on cultural representation, appropriation and non-biased instruction in the art world. I am passionate about helping young ones to see and appreciate the diverse world around them as they draw inspiration from the beauty of our global community.
