This course is designed to be an independent arts and crafts playtime experience for the first-grade student. In this course, children’s’ inherent artistic imagination and creativity focus on the basics of art and making art. Students are introduced to primary colors, the color wheel, shapes such as lines and circles, and concepts such as symmetry. Young artists explore a variety of media such as pastels, watercolors, crayons, tempera, and pencil drawing as they create a watercolor tree, use a printing block, produce weather painting, and produce a watercolor painting. They will also be creating colorful calendars, stenciling, fashioning intricate flower drawings, revisiting symmetrical objects, and mixing colors.Note: Course will NOT have live sessions.Customer-Provided Required Physical Materials:Poster paperWatercolor paperPastel/charcoal paperTempera paint in primary colors of red, yellow, and blueBrush – 3/4″ roundWatercolor brushPastelsCrayonsYellow, blue, red, and black markersHousehold items such as glue, scissors, tape, ruler, cardboard
