6th Grade Art - The Sketchbook Project
In sixth grade, students work through each class by exploring fine art materials, sophisticated art concepts, and sketching, and are challenged with new subjects and ideas. By the end of the year, each student will have completed more in-depth studies of techniques and materials. They will develop a series of sketches, art concept notes, and completed original work of art, accompanied by an artist statement.
This year's 6th Grade project theme is: Art & The Cosmic Connection. Students will be learning about how scientists use the elements of art to study and analyze planetary surfaces. They will be exploring a range of scientific images to gather inspiration for their own unique art piece.
