A Note from CSA Art Teacher

Greetings Parents!!

I am so looking forward to teaching art to your children this year. We will be focusing mainly on drawing over the year, and I will be using the following three textbooks to help develop your child’s drawing skills:

Art for Kids: Drawing: The Only Drawing Book You'll Ever Need to Be the Artist You've Always Wanted to Be
Temple, Kathryn

Sketching and Drawing for Children (Perigee)
Vaughan-Jackson, G.

Draw the Draw 50 Way: How to Draw Cats, Puppies, Horses, Buildings, Birds, Aliens, Boats, Trains, and Everything Else Under the Sun
Ames, Lee J.

This year, our projects will take several weeks to complete, so the children will not be bringing home completed work every day. The children can keep their art supplies in their “cubbies” at AAP. Please do not hesitate to email me with any particular lesson suggestions or questions; I am here to serve you!!

I have included a supply list below, if students could bring these supplies to the first class on September 9, it would be much appreciated.

Thank you!!
