8th Grade8th Grade is a powerful year in the art classroom! This year, we expand on many of the skills we have learned and create some very impressive works of art.
Our idea-driven projects meaningfully investigate a wide range of themes and concepts. We are able to be thoughtful and create art that truly reflects that. The exploration of an idea, event, situation, or question through art happens every day in this classroom!! Below you will see a description of what our new skills learned might look like. |
"Big ideas" ARE NOT ABOUT SKILLS OR ART TECHNIQUES! THE "BIG IDEA" IS THE CONCEPT OR MEANING BEHIND YOUR WORK OF ART! |
