The first lesson is about defining the word Renaissance and helping the kids understand the transition between the Middle Ages to the age of enlightenment. They will be studying Michelangelo, da Vinci, and Brunelleschi. Each lesson will focus on an artist- their works of art, techniques, and subjects followed by the students using what they learned to express their ideas using different mediums.
Today the kids used paints. Kenny made a castle. He was very excited and told me, "I didn't wiggle at all because I didn't want to miss anything they were saying." It is great to see him so on fire about something. Next week is a study of the city of Venice and the kids will get to use clay. Can't wait to see what he comes up with.
