Art Set
A one semester art course that can be done independently by students will please many parents, especially if they are not too artsy themselves. Five units in five books cover the basic elements of art and some art history. Students will prepare a portfolio of both two and three dimensional work. Parents grade the work using rubrics provided and students will also do self-evaluations.
Students need a computer and internet access, as well as traditional art supplies. Here is a materials list: 2 graphite pencils, 2 charcoal pencils, 1 gum eraser, 1 pack plain printer paper, several sheets of photographic printer paper (optional,) several manila folders, glue or tape, poster boards, 1 sketch pad 11" x 14" or larger, set of 6 tube watercolors, set of 6 acrylic tube paints (no oil paints), box of 8 pastels, 3 sheets of 11" x 14" watercolor paper, 2 canvas boards or stretched canvas 11" x 14" or larger, a palette, and a variety of brushes.
Subjects and projects include: design principles, choice of artist to research, material and media, graphic art design, origami, paper stained glass, illustrate a children's book, graphs, art of many different cultures, careers in art, advertising. Each book is 42-58 pages, pb ~ Sara
Resources in this section offer lessons using a variety of art skills and media (and possibly art appreciation), but are less comprehensive than a full art program.
The art student learns perceptual skill, artist research, material & media, and creative expression. They create art projects and study examples of art and artists in history and cultures. Students also study media and art, and careers in art.
