Usually between Christmas and New Years, when Sam is mostly home from work, he teaches a unit to the kids on something he's interested in. This year he taught a general Art Unit. I didn't get many pictures, and I don't have his lesson plan, but he talked about a bunch of design principles and Gestalt theory and how these principles contribute to a pleasing work of art. These are just some pictures of the notes the kids took and some drawings they did, to remind us that we did this unit at all!
The kids love learning from Sam and several of them want to be artists, so this was a really fun unit for them!
