The fifth grade art curriculum covers the study of realistic American Fine Art of 1800 - present.  We create neutral colors with various intensities, compliments, and tints and shades. Printmaking, various watercolor techniques,  early American folk craft, and Pre-Columbian art is also included in our program.  

Fifth grade art students create and keep art journals to supplement their study of art.
