All About Meet The Masters
Who teaches Meet The Masters art lessons?
Classes are taught by adult volunteers (parents, grandparents) from the school community.
How are volunteers prepared?
Volunteers will have access to a step by step workshop video that can be watched from the comfort of your home. Volunteers will also be provided a Lesson Plan Book with step by step teaching instructions, engaging slides, entertaining scripts, visual aids, online art prints, game props, and more.
How do I schedule lessons in the beginning of the year?
1) Speak with your child's teacher about the best days and times to schedule the art lessons.
2) Once you set dates, fill out the form called "Art Full Year Lesson Sign-Up Request", and submit it online. On this form you may also request the Art Bungalow for your lesson location.
3) Once scheduled, lessons will appear on the online Art calendar.
More information on scheduling your class lesson can be found on the CALENDAR page.
Where are the Lesson Plan books?
They are located in the Art Bungalow, room B-12. They are filed by grade and by teacher. Please use them for your lesson, then RETURN them to the cabinet where you found them. Please keep the workshop DVD and presentation flash drive in the binder.
What about the supplies?
The supplies are all located in B-12. The Lesson Plan books list all supplies needed for each class. Contact the Art Supply Coordinator if you have questions about the supplies.
What are "student work envelopes"?
Student work envelopes, or portfolios, are made by each volunteer for each child. Using a LARGE piece of paper, staple the sides into an envelope, and label it with the child's name and the teacher's name. Large paper for these student portfolios is distributed at the orientation meeting or you can get the paper from B-12.
What do I do with Artwork at the end of the Art lesson?
1) If the art needs to dry, lay it flat overnight. There are specially made drying racks in the Art bungalow. The next day, pick up the art and place each student's work in that student's work envelope.
2) Store the student portfolios in your teacher's bin in the storage rack next to the door.
3) Check off your class lesson on the list up at the white board in B-12. This will let the Art program leaders know you have completed this lesson.
4) Student artwork will accumulate all year. At the end of the school year, you will select one sample from each child for the Art Show.
