Third grade students are learning about artists in the community. They are exploring various art careers and are creating a box dioramma the depicts an art
career of their choice.
We also studied about the use of visual symbols and how artists incorporate symbols into an artwork to communicate thoughts and ideas to viewers.
Currently we are working on a unit of study that compares different styles of art. We will begin this unit with a lesson about realism. Next we will learn about impressionism followed by abstract art. Our final lesson in this unit will be about surrealism. The abstract art project will be used in our new PTA / Art classroom fund raiser activity. More information about this will be coming home soon.
