In this Self-Paced course, students will draw The Grinch! There are NO REGULAR LIVE MEETINGS for this class. This means your child will receive a pre-recorded video lesson they can watch at their own pace on whatever schedule works best! The video will utilize a top view camera to show up close each step in detail.

Students can work at their own pace. No need to wait on others or feel rushed. You may view the video and pause it as many times as needed. Flex classes are an excellent choice for families with busy schedules. Parents and siblings are also able to sit and draw with the student as a fun activity to do together as a family!

HOW IT WORKS:
Students are encouraged to jump into the classroom and start introducing themselves, asking questions, and discuss their interests of the Grinch with each other. Students may share fun facts or knowledge on the Grinch and the characters from the movie and books. Students are allowed to use images (especially toys they might have), typed messages, and video clips they create for peer interaction. This plays a HUGE part in making class so much more fun! If the students have time throughout the week, there will be a word search, maze or a scavenger hunt to find images and toys similar to what we are drawing. 

On Monday, I will post my instructional video, step-by-step, no later than 5pm Central Time. Please use a pencil to start the drawing. Have a good eraser! If you are having challenges, and things are not working well, please contact me ASAP so I can provide further help. The students can then decide how they want to color their character. Crayons, colored pencils, markers, anything is possible! Students are encouraged to add extra details and even design a background scene to go along with the character to make their drawing a unique masterpiece. 

Throughout the week, I will check into class to see how everyone is doing and answer any questions posted into the classroom. 

On Saturday, it is Art Show and Tell, art work submission day. I will check into class to see and remind learners to upload an image or video of their finished drawing. Once the drawing is submitted to the classroom, students are encouraged to leave positive comments on their classmate’s work, as well as other questions they may have for each other. This activity will give the students an opportunity to learn from each other and to see how each drawing is unique. This will promote positive feedback and encourage each learner to continue their passion for drawing. If a student prefers to send their drawing just to me, that is perfectly fine. 

I can’t wait to see each student’s artwork as we all share our love of the Grinch!
