Welcome to Mrs. Harvey's Art Class
I am extremely excited about the 2018-2019 school year at Plato Academy. There are so many exciting art projects I have lined up for the year. To add to the excitement, Clearwater will have it's own designated art room this year. This allows for students to have a greater variety of projects. Students will be learning the elements of art and the principles of design with grade appropriate projects in a creative, respectful and environment for children so that they are encouraged to learn and become powerful thinkers who have confidence in their abilities.

Elements of Art |
Principles of Design |
The elements of art are the building blocks used by artists to create a work of art: color, form, line, shape, space, texture, and value.
Art GradesArt grades are not determined by whether or not a student is a master artist. Art grades are decided by whether or not a child participates in art class, shows effort, follows directions, brings a positive attitude, has a willingness to learn and practices appropriate behavior.

The principles of design describe the ways that artists use the elements of art in a work of art.
Art ProjectsI am very proud of the creativity that all of the children bring to the art classroom. Please check out the Current Art Projects page and the Past Art Projects page to view some of our masterpieces.
