Experience the Art Nook studio - HOmeschool programs

BIG NEWS! We accept vouchers, PO's and are committed to working with homeschooling families.

At The Art Nook, our homeschool programs are designed to inspire creativity while supporting well-rounded learning for TK-8th grade students. With classes that align with state and national VAPA standards, we integrate art with literature, history, science, and more for a truly immersive experience. 


One of our newly developed programs, Hablamos Arte, is set to launch in August 2025 for the 2025-2026 school year! This program is a Spanish immersion class that blends language learning with artistic expression, giving students a fun and engaging way to explore both culture and creativity. Each 90-minute session provides fresh, exciting projects that encourage critical thinking, skill development, and a lifelong love for learning—all in a supportive and fun environment!


We are proud to be an Accredited Community Partner with Sequoia Grove Charter Alliance, serving Feather River and Lake View Charter Schools. Additionally, we are approved and partnered with Forest Charter School, Cottonwood, Horizon, Harvest Ridge, and South Sutter. We are always open to collaborating with other programs. If you'd like to see The Art Nook offered through your homeschool program, please don’t hesitate to reach out—we’d love to connect! 

Process Art Exploration: TK & Kindergarten

Each class meets once a week for 60 minutes providing a dynamic and sensory-rich class designed to introduce young artists to the wonderful world of process art. Through hands-on activities and open-ended projects, students are encouraged to experiment with a variety of materials, textures, and techniques.


Program Highlights:

- Creative Exploration: Students are free to explore a variety of art materials, such as paint, clay, paper, and natural elements, in a playful and experimental environment. This encourages independent thinking and fosters a love for creativity at an early age.

- Sensory Development: The focus on tactile experiences helps students develop their fine motor skills and enhance their sensory awareness. Activities like finger painting, texture exploration, and material manipulation engage the senses while promoting cognitive and emotional growth.

- Artistic Expression: Without the expectation of a “perfect” finished product, students can fully immerse themselves in the process of creation. They are free to make choices, take risks, and express their thoughts and feelings through art, building confidence in their own ideas and abilities.

- Focus on the Journey: The emphasis is placed on what the students learn and experience during the creative process—problem-solving, decision-making, and exploring new techniques. This encourages a growth mindset, where the value is found in the exploration rather than the outcome.

Studio Art and Education: 1st - 8th

Each class meets once a week for 90 minutes, providing continuous art education. This program is designed with flexibility and depth, ensuring that students from 1st to 8th grade engage with age-appropriate, standards-aligned projects. All projects meet California and national VAPA standards, and I’ve created thoughtful lesson plans and assessments that tie in multiple subjects, including literature, history, science, and math. The curriculum is ever evolving to keep the experience fresh and engaging. I meet students where they are, ensuring the curriculum is tailored to their developmental level. Additionally, I often incorporate literary tie-ins with books that correspond to our projects. My middle school students especially love being read to, even from books aimed at younger audiences, which sparks meaningful discussions and creative insights—proving that art and literature are powerful companions in education.  


Program Highlights:

- VAPA Standards-Aligned Curriculum: All projects meet California and national VAPA standards, ensuring high-quality, well-rounded art education.

- Multi-Subject Tie-Ins: Lesson plans integrate subjects like literature, science, math, and history, enhancing students' understanding of art in a broader context.

-Classroom Philosophy: Rooted in my broader classroom teaching philosophy, the program emphasizes creativity, exploration, responsibility, and artistic independence.

Hablamos Arte- Spanish & Art Immersion **COMING SOON!

LAUNCHING AUGUST 2025 for the 2025-2026 SCHOOL YEAR! 

Program Highlights:

- Engaging Spanish Curriculum: The language component of the course is designed to build vocabulary, grammar, conversation skills, and comprehension in a hands-on, interactive manner. Students learn Spanish through storytelling, cultural exploration, and interactive lessons that emphasize real-world communication skills.

- Project-Based Learning: Students will actively apply their language knowledge by participating in art projects that are tied to the cultural traditions of Spanish-speaking countries. From creating traditional crafts to exploring the works of famous Hispanic artists, students will use language and creativity to deepen their understanding of both art and Spanish.

- Cultural Immersion: Each lesson introduces students to the culture, history, and daily life of Spanish-speaking countries. By incorporating cultural elements into language learning, students develop a more holistic understanding of how language and culture are interconnected. They’ll explore everything from Guatemalan worry dolls to Mexican muralism, with each unit offering a rich artistic and linguistic exploration.

- Artistic Expression: Students will create various art projects, using a wide range of materials and techniques, inspired by the cultural and artistic heritage of the regions they study. Projects may include paper crafting, painting, textile arts, and sculpture, all tied to the country or tradition being studied in the language lessons.
