Our visual art classes prepare students for the 21st century by fostering skills in communication, collaboration, creativity, perseverance, and taking initiative. Our students are hardworking, motivated, and curious.
My classroom is typically buzzing with students working on projects, sharing ideas, trying out artistic techniques, exploring materials, researching, and receiving assistance from the teacher and classmates.
My classes are a mix of grade levels, abilities, and interests. Some students have had rich experiences with art in middle school, while others have had limited involvement with ceramics and sculpture. My students represent a variety of socio-economic backgrounds, where everyone is invited to participate in the creative experience. I want my students to try new ideas, explore different perspectives, find their voice, and enjoy making art.
My Project
TeachersPayTeachers is a great place for discovering new lessons and projects to use with students. I am looking for resources in two-dimensional art, such as drawing exercises in shading and working with colored pencils. I am also looking for lessons in three-dimensional art, including sculpture-based projects, like papier-mache and cardboard.
With this project, I can provide new learning opportunities for my students, while also helping me improve my teaching capabilities, and trying out new artistic processes.
I want to be able to provide my students with new projects, and TeachersPayTeachers allows me to gather new ideas.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
