Introduction to Art - Grade K

The Kindergarten program is an ideal introduction to art for the Kindergarten student. Providing a strong introduction to the art fundamentals (the elements of art and basic techniques), it also places strong emphasis on drawing technique, self-expression, and the great masters. Several of the lessons are based on children’s literature, providing lots of opportunity to connect with the language arts. Lessons such as Butterfly and Cocoon and The Four Seasons offer a simple connection to science, while Patchwork Animals and Old King Cole are based on children’s literature. Artists studied include Pablo Picasso, Alexander Calder, and Vincent van Gogh.
