Using a wide variety of art materials will allow the students to express themselves in new and exciting ways. Our color by number club doesn't necessarily tie into many academic areas, but students need the opportunity to be kids and to relax. We have asked so much of them lately, with the pandemic and on-line learning; I want my students to be able to enjoy themselves and to have time to take a few breaths before jumping back in academic work. Art is all around us, and students should be encouraged to express themselves through artistic expression. While I do teach the students basic color theory at the beginning of the club, they are left to their own devices to explore and learn how to use color. Many find that they have improved their coloring skills by the end of the club! They enjoy their time to sit and be kids, and to color amazing pieces of art.
