My Project

My classes from K-2 will be participating in creating art inspired by van Gogh, Monet and Renoir. The students will go through some lessons teaching them Art through the Ages, showing young artists how art has progressed throughout the centuries through fun and engaging lessons. We will be using paint and oil pastels to recreate masterpieces. We will be discussing how art made by Impressionists is different than art made at different times in history? The students are very excited to finish our year learning more about the famous artists we've been talking about all year.
