Welcome to the K-1 Art blog for Archway Trivium East! I am delighted to be teaching art to your children this year, and I hope that they will enjoy all of the beautiful artwork that we will study and create as the year goes on.
In our first week of school, both the students in Kindergarten and in First Grade will spend time learning the procedures of the art classroom. This will help them feel more comfortable with the environment and pace of the classroom, and it will allow us to make good use of our time when we begin working on art projects. We will also discuss what makes a piece of art beautiful, and this will give them a glimpse into the reason for the deep longing that all humans have for beauty. Beauty fulfills the human person in a unique way, and this is why learning to appreciate good art is so important for us. As the year continues, I hope that the soul of each of my students is able to grow through his/her experience of beautiful art. |
