ART CLUB There are 3 sections of Art Club for students in 4th, 5th or 6th grade. The sections are ten weeks long and we explore a variety of themed projects while getting exposed to fun materials and techniques.
4th grade Art Club will be offered on Thursdays from 2:40-4:00. Students participate in a gesture drawing activity with art statues using their sketchbooks for the first ten minutes of art club time. Then we will choose a theme for the time of year or a new technique. One of my favorite projects is to do a cookie decorating day in honor of the holidays. 4th Grade Meeting Dates

6th Grade Art Club is primarily choice based and students have the ability to enhance their creative thinking and problem solving in the art room. They will be given an artistic problem and will have to create a pieces of art based on that. Two special things about 6th grade art club is that we create clay roses, lilies and daisies in honor of Mother's day. We also create tye-dyed t-shirts and get to paint on the classroom windows during the spring.
