Drawings Made Fun and Easy Using the Grid Method Renee Kubik

11:45 a.m.-2:00 p.m. Grades 4-8 $150

Your young aspiring artist will learn “The Grid Method” of drawing. This is a low-tech way to reproduce and/or enlarge an image that they will draw through use of measurements.

The “Grid Method” involves drawing a grid over your reference photo, and then drawing a grid of equal ratio on your work surface (paper). Students will draw an image focusing on one square at a time, until the entire image has been transferred. Once they’re finished, they simply erase the grid lines and apply color. This is a fun and creative style that helps the young and aspiring artist develop an understanding through spatial concepts with drawings, which will now be proportionally correct!

The New Testament is a collection of 27 books written within 70 years after Jesus’ death and resurrection. Jesus, and the books written about him, has deeply impacted the history of the Western world. This class will look broadly at some of the literature in these 27 books and narrowly at Jesus’ life and ministry. Because these books primarily focus their attention on one of history’s most impactful people, we will spend time looking at who Jesus was as a first century Jewish prophet. We will be asking historical, religious, and personal questions as we spend time learning about the world of Jesus and the early Church.

Writing means sharing. It’s part of the human condition to want to share things - thoughts, ideas, opinions. Paulo Coelho The objective of this class is to make writing more of a natural process for students. Each exercise is designed to help students feel more comfortable with the writing process, beginning with selecting a topic from a subject list, to brainstorming for development and support and then constructing thesis statements. We will review modal writing: narrative, expository and persuasive and practice editing and revision for clarity and coherence in sentence construction, organization and word choice. Each essay will encourage peer support, efficient time management and individual writing style. Students will use Google Docs to share work and revisions throughout the process. Each week of direct instruction time will build on the writing process, culminating with a cited source research paper.
