Honestly I can’t draw a stick figure, but my daughter can draw crazy good and I’m seriously jealous. What a talent to have, right? When it came time to teach Art in our homeschool I kind of shuddered. How am I going to do this? I need someone to teach homeschool art to my children!
I was compensated in product and for my time reviewing this product. I was not required to give a positive review. All opinions are 100% my own. Please see my disclosure page for more information.
Light bulb moment, I’m not. Someone else is. We belong to a co-op and she has been taking art there. Now that co-op is over for the semester we wanted to keep the creativity going. I found an online art program that was just what we needed, Atelier Homeschool Art.
This is what Atelier Art is all about:
All Atelier art lessons are presented on video, and reinforced by lesson plans. Not only are the videos a rich source of creative ideas and inspiration, it also clarifies the objectives, materials, techniques and procedures of each lesson. Abundant instructional coverage, as
well as that of students in a virtual art class performing the lesson and displaying their finished artwork, consistently produces exceptional student results and learning, regardless of the art background of the parent-teacher.
When we logged on to this online art program we were excited to see all of the fun classes we could take. We chose level 8, it is for ages 12-16, but my 6-year-old follows right along and does her own art as well.
What I do is connect my computer to our T.V. and show the lessons on the big screen so we all can enjoy learning. I have learned a lot just listening.
This program just doesn’t teach the crafting of art, but it teaches art appreciation. Art appreciation is a high school requirement for our state, this will cover part of that credit for us.
There are a full list of classes you can choose from there are 20 in level 8. The art appreciation classes also have art projects included with the course.
Each course comes with full lesson plans, student handouts, and examples of other students art. The handouts are great for your student to follow along with and the examples show your student that everyone’s interpretation of art is different and their own.
You can sign up for a free preview of the classes here. I would encourage you to see how great this program is.
The curriculum is also available on DVD for those that prefer it. Atelier also has an Art Supply Kit which includes approximately 80% of the supplies needed for a complete level. They make it easy!
This program offers 8 different levels, you just choose the level for your child’s age and grade. We have learned that at any level though everyone can learn.
Easy and fun are two words this homeschool mom loves to hear, Atelier Art does it all for us. This has cultivated and challenged my daughter to think beyond the lines and create freely. Frankly my entire family is learning to be more creative!
