Art is a 9 week rotation in which students learn the basic concepts of art. During the 9 week period we will be introducing many new concepts about art in all grade levels. Each grade will follow a lesson plan based on the text and the state standard course of study. During the first several weeks of each quarter the students will learn basic art concepts and how they are applied in todays world. The class will focus on learning new terms, reading, art history, art appreciation ,writing about art, and of course visual art. Each grade level will keep a portfolio updated of work they do throughout the nine weeks and some of these items will be displayed throughout the school and community.
