JMS Visual Arts

At JMS, we offer 2 classes: 6th Grade Art, Introduction to Art and Advanced Art for 6-8th grade students. In these courses, students explore the Elements and Principles of Art and Design. Units of instruction will include art history, artists, various techniques, and art criticism. The fundamentals of visual arts are taught through projects in both 2D and 3D disciplines.

Our learning goals are:

•Learn and identify visual art terms.

•Recognize the development of visual art from a cultural and historical perspective.

•Develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills through the creative process.

•Research, observe, select, and apply a variety of ideas, subject matters and technical skills to create original works of art.

• Appreciate visual arts as a vehicle of human expression.

​

The courses are taught by Ms. Le.
