Art
Grades K-5 and Middle School Elective
SJA Art allows students to tap into their creative minds. We focus on various styles of art from past to
present and use a variety of mediums to create unique and personal pieces of art each week.
In Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd grade we focus on allowing students to use their creative imaginations to
create various pieces of personal artwork. We primarily focus on color and patterns while trying out a
large variety of mediums.
In grades 3, 4 and 5 we work on more precise drawing and painting skills. We focus on a specific
medium or style of art each week while still allowing students to put their own flair and creativity into
their artwork.
In grades 6, 7 and 8, we guide students through their individual styles of art, allowing them to create
pieces that are inspired by them while also centering in on specific styles and mediums of art
throughout the year.
