We will be exploring many things this year. My goal is to have every student come home with a portfolio with at least 4-5 pieces of art from their year. 

 

I will try to add what we are focusing on each month.  I am excited to see what these students create!

​

​

Younger Students:

​

PBS Kids:  "On PBS Kids Arts Games, well-known characters like Elmo from Sesame Street and D.W. from  

                  Arthur lead your child through various creative adventures."

​

Jackson Pollock: Simple website where they can create Jackson Pollock inspired digital art. 

​

​

Older students: 

​​

Canva: "For the budding graphic designer interested in curating the perfect social feed or crafting their own ‘zine, Canva takes the tools once available only in complicated applications like Photoshop and makes them intuitive. Kids and teens can browse thousands of templates and use amazing new integrations like the “magic eraser” to remove background characters from photos and polish their designs."

​

Google Arts and Culture: "Hoping to sneak in a little bit of learning into your child’s next creative venture? Consider introducing your kiddos to Diwali or Hanukkah celebrations through Google Arts & Culture’s online coloring books that are outside your usual horizons."

 

Create your own Comic Strip:  "Another action-packed art adventure, kids and teens can create their own comic strips with the help of Make Beliefs Comix."

​​

Mandala Gaba: "Mandala Gaba allows users to create beautiful mandalas, which are kaleidoscopic designs that feature symmetrical patterns. The website’s interactive drawing board can instantly mirror your strokes across a number of points, creating intriguing symmetries and unexpected designs."
