Art Attack
Ralph Downs Elementary
Needed: Egg Cartons for Art
Literacy through the Arts Night: March 3rd @ 6pm
Welcome!
Art Education in the Putnam City School District is top notch. We set the precedence and standard in the state. We are the only district Kinder through 12th grade that has at least one art teacher in every building with a set curriculum pacing guide. Kiddos are learning about the Elements and Principles of Design every third day when they come to their art class with me at Ralph Downs. We have created portfolios that they are keeping their artwork in when it is not on display in our student art gallery. This portfolio will go home at the end of the school year. Thank you for your continued support of the arts and please feel free to contact with me with questions, concerns, and or ideas!
Thank you,
Kimberly Scott
Kindergarten
Kinders main focus is to learn how to use materials and art mediums in the art room. Students are also learning about the elements of design (line, color, shape, texture, etc.)
First Grade
First Graders are building on the basics of what they learned in art last year. In addition to that, we are learning how to express ourselves creatively.
Second Grade
Second Graders are have the opportunity to branch out from what they already know and go deeper into how to use the art materials. They are able to use new mediums and concepts this year as well.
Third Grade
Third grade is an extremely creative group this year! They have no problem using any medium I challenge them with. Their state standard they are focusing on is connecting art to cultural perspective- including local, regional, national & global.
Fourth Grade
Fourth Graders are hard at work this year using various kinds of media. One of our state standards is to connect visual art to modern and historic cultures. And of course we are constantly using our elements and principles of design when creating our artwork.
Fifth Grade
Fifth Graders are being challenged this year with mediums that they aren't used to using. Their most successful project this year has been the drawing of an animal eye they made. Our state standard they are focusing on is using elements and principles with a variety of materials, techniques, and sources of ideas.
