Art is what separates us from other species and makes us human. Our world today would simply not exist without it.  It has the power to sell a product, lift our spirits, define a culture, rule a nation, tell a story and change the world.  Developing creativity, fine motor and problem solving skills is critical at such a young age.  Students will be given a wide range of media to use – drawing, painting, printmaking, ceramics and sculpture.  The experiences they have in art class will help them develop while learning art history and reinforcing other curriculums.
