Help me give my students two complete painting stations and paint. The different supplies will rotate in and out of this very creative, self-directed easel centered painting station. Students will choose to paint individually or with a partner.
My students are from one of the poorest counties in our state with 75% free and reduce lunch, therefore very few have access to art supplies at home. Therefore every time I offer them rich art making experiences they are completely engaged with the cross curricular content and activity. My students love all the new art projects that we learn about especially the connections between the curriculum across the board. When connecting math, reading, writing, science, and history to my art curriculum, my students are amazed. But are craving more creative ways to make art with many, many more connections: ART CENTERS.
My Project
Art centers are a fun and exciting way for students to drive their own creativity making using many different supply stations with always changing supplies. I plan to set up this painting center with two double sided easels, allowing 4-8 students at a time the opportunity to free paint whatever they choose during their center time. Centers will work as a place for early finishers to venture when art projects are complete. As well as a place the entire class to enjoy like a "maker lab" with many different options that rotate in-and-out of the stations monthly. This procedure will keep different art supplies new and interesting for my young artists.
