Creative Expression
All of our students benefit from planned activities that help them express themselves freely and constructively. Our Savior School encourages this expression through dramatic play, music, movement, and various art mediums.
Goal
To teach every child how to express himself/herself through art. This demands that the students learn to see and experience the world in a different way. The language of art, like the language of words, requires the learning of skills and concepts that will allow the free flow of expression.
Methods
The instructors teach the elements and principles of art and drawing in a developmental and sequential way. They also plan activities to study the art of other artists, cultures and historical periods. In all areas of study, the emphasis is on motivation and self-expression.
The focus of the hands-on lessons is to utilize the process of visualizing, synthesizing and expressing through a wide variety of media.
