Overview: “Then God said, ‘Let us make man in our image, after our likeness…” (Genesis 1:26).
God created us to be like him. He loved being the Creator, and because humans were made in his image, we also have the gift of artistic activities and expressions. The study of the visual arts, both its techniques and history, stimulates the mind and develops creativity.
This Grade Level 1 Art course is designed to provide students with opportunities to express themselves through the visual arts. Each of the five units focuses on one of the five elements of art—line, shape, value, texture, and color. The curriculum is written and designed for anyone who desires to teach, whether an experienced art teacher or a novice. Background information on artists and art history, visual aids, and clear step-by-step methods and instructions are incorporated into each lesson.
Art Teacher Text (and Art Prints) includes an introductory section explaining the benefits and purposes of studying art, how to use the curriculum, instructions for using the art images and prints, suggestions for providing a classroom atmosphere conducive to creativity, and tips for care of supplies and materials. Each lesson includes student objectives, biblical worldview integration, a list of materials needed, a scripted introduction paired with art images/prints, vocabulary words and definitions, detailed instructions for student activities and assignments, informal assessment questions, and possible extensions or modifications to the lesson. Also includes color prints of art reproductions, instructional material, and examples of student art assignments; reproduced on high quality card stock with a semi-gloss finish.
