6th Grade Art

6th Grade Art with Mrs. Dafoe will be a semester filled with artistic experiences that will broaden and strengthen students art skills as well as develop 21st century skills. The students will experiment with a variety of media and create an array of 2D and 3D projects. Not only will they create, but they will write about their art, self-assess their work, reflect, critique, collaborate, critically think, and create a personal art portfolio filled with their 6th grade art experiences. They will focus on color theory and all that it entails. They will investigate why art is important and what skills it brings to those whom experience it. ART IS NOT JUST ABOUT DRAWING AND COLORS...it teaches life skills that will help them to be successful in every aspect of their lives from family to employment and beyond.
