grade 5 fine arts

In fifth grade, the students continue their study of the principles of art. They will strive to understand the principles of emphasis, proportion, unity, and contrast. They will also create depth in a composition by using perspective. Students will create a still-life design with the emphasis on three-dimensional forms (cube, cone, pyramid, etc. ). Students will study and analyze the work of Georgia O’Keeffe, Fredrick Remington, Winslow Homer, Henri Rousseau, Henry Moore, and Chris VanAllsburg.
