The KML Schools Art Curriculum Committee recently held it's first Art Make & Take. KML federation grade school teachers from a variety of schools and grade levels attended. They left with lesson and project plans as well as at least one sample project that they created. The teachers also had time to build professional relationships and gain insight into how others teach art.
The Make & Take focused teachers on the intentional teaching of line, one of the elements of art, while also introducing the work of master artists as examples. The lesson plan about line offered a comprehensive view of what students should understand and be able to do by the end of eight grade. Teachers can choose what information is appropriate for their students based on grade level and prior knowledge. The projects allow for adaptation to a variety of grade levels as well.
The committee plans to offer Make & Takes on a monthly basis, each focusing on a different element of art. All KML federation teachers are welcome!
