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:

 -Transparent pricing: No surprise supply lists or added fees: all-inclusive pricing model.
- 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 exploration. 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 that tie in multiple subjects, including literature, history, science, and math. 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.
