Towne Meadows Elementary Art Masterpiece!
*Generally, Art Masterpiece in the classroom consists of: learning about our painting of the month, the artist and sometimes other works by that artist, an activity, and a treat. (No art degree or professional experience required)
* Art Masterpiece lessons are around 45 min for upper grades and around 30 minutes for kindergarteners.
* Our Art Masterpiece program has packets where parents from past years have put their lesson plans –so volunteers do not have to feel pressured to know about art to help teach about the paintings and artists. You are free to use any appropriate information from additional sources and plan your own projects.
*There are four artists presented to the class throughout the year for each grade. You have 2 months to present your artist to the class. Please try to return your packet at the end of the first month so that the next volunteer has time to use the packet and prepare for their lesson.
*We have an Art Masters Supply cupboard located in the VIK office of the cafeteria. You will need a key from the attendance clerk in the front office to open this closet. Please return the key when you are done. There are also several drawers in the same office containing laminated versions of additional artwork. Most artists have a painting hanging in the hallway of the school.
*We will have two meetings you can choose from to further train and show you about the Art Masters program. Tues 9/15 12pm and Thurs. 9/17 6:30pm-7:30pm (Library)
Thank You for Volunteering!
