Art

The LNC Art Program is both sequential and cumulative. Although experience at the earlier grade levels is not essential for success, each course expands on the key concepts from the prior year. The students’ age and experience are considered in the development of lessons and activities. Students are encouraged to push their artistic and creative skills to produce their personal best.

The art curriculum is focused on four curriculum goals:

• • Critical and creative thinking skills for understanding, producing and evaluating art
  • Media application skills
  • Elements and principles of design
  • Connections between art and our surrounding world as well as individuality, historical references and other curriculum areas.
