This school has been just making do for the last two years and haven't even had a certified art teacher until now. No supplies were bought last year. I want to ensure that enough paper, paint, and instruction possibilities are available to give them a good start. I also want to include some quality supplies like the Prismacolor premier pencils and some painting canvases. These are artist grade that will be used by the talented students who wish to do more with their art and hope to do it professionally. Students will learn to shade, blend, use perspective and use multiple types of media. My classroom will be student-centered and will be a TAB (Teaching Artistic Behavior) classroom. This means that I will demonstrate multiple methods of producing art and students will participate in the mediums that inspire them the most. They will also get to choose their subject matter as long as they are school appropriate while they demonstrate the methods being taught. There will be centers where they can gather around the type of art that they enjoy the most. Ex. Painting, drawing, fiber arts, ceramics, collage, jewelry making, sculpture, etc. Please help us get off to a good start with basic supplies for "normal" art and I will try to build off of this over the next few years.
