Art Syllabus & Assignments

Art class for high school students is loaded with experiences in sketching, painting, pottery, stained glass, sculpting, batiking, and much more. Use of these media provides students with the art terminology. Students work with the elements of art by making booklets, drawings,and taking photos. Study is done as a whole class by going on fieldtrips to local museums, glass shops, art supply stores, and guest speakers. Students are given several opportunities to critique famous, personal, and professional art pieces. They practice their skills and seek to improve throughout the year. Research is an important part of learning about art, so we use technology to incorporate projects and papers on the history of art, styles, techniques, and artists.
