​

First graders are encouraged to explore and express themselves through their artistic work. Learners are going to embrace every opportunity to pursue their own ideas.

They will understand the benefits of concentration, perseverance and collaboration, as well as developing the motor skills that are generally associated with producing art. The enjoyable and collaborative nature of art and design will also provide them with many opportunities for social development.

This year we will travel around the world making different art projects inspired by each country as we learn different art techniques.
