ACHF Arts Education
As a result of this program, school aged children will learn about art principles, elements, and create visual arts projects. Evaluation will occur through follow-up discussions and teacher observations of students' skill improvements. Students participated in a discussion where they described what each art element and principle meant, and how they can show each one in their artwork. Artwork showing use of different elements and principles were/are currently displayed in the hallways. Student confidence and skills improved when handling art supplies as well over the course of 12 weeks.
