1. Mrs. Franzese Hi! Welcome to Art! What is Art? Talk to Me
Art is an important aspect of education. Drawing, painting, and sculpting are not only enjoyable, but they also provide strong cross-curricular opportunities as well (i.e. Math, Literacy, Social Studies, etc.). Students will find a variety of materials in my classroom that will help them learn and explore the fundamentals of art. Students will create a portfolio that will show growth from year to year at KMS. The portfolio will include: art production, art history, criticism, and aesthetics. Art is much about the process. By having children express their ideas and feelings they will develop creativity and pride in their accomplishments.
If you ever have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me. Let’s work together to make sure your child has everything he/she needs to be successful this year!
You can reach me at the school phone number, which is ext. 8232, or you can me at
