ART I
A Few Examples
Overview
Art I is an introductory art class designed to build skill with art media, creative thinking, and problem solving. Students will develop foundation skills in drawing, painting, sculpture, and printmaking while exploring art from around the world and finding their own creative voices.
This year, all Grade 9 students take Art I, and the Grade 9 team works closely to develop meaningful interdisciplinary projects that engage across subject areas. Our first project, Who the Heck am I? explores personal identity.
Students created prints of Ohio grown foods as part of their Food for Thought project. They studied line, shape, value, texture, and printmaking techniques.
