How Meet The Masters Will Work In Your School

 Step 1: "Introducing the Masters" Assemblies:
The Meet The Masters experience begins with a multi-media (slides, artist voices, music etc.) assembly where the children learn about the fascinating lives and famous works of the Master Artists. Interactive questions and multi-media content will keep the students’ interest while walking through a virtual museum (available on Slides or CD-Rom) filled with interesting stories and facts.

 Step 2: "Learning from the Masters" Technique Packets:
Now that the children have a true connection to the artist, it is time to introduce the techniques which made the art revolutionary. Back in the classroom they will work on a mostly self-guided follow-up packet which will be the pencil-on-paper means for your student to “Learn from the Masters”.

 Step 3: "Working with the Masters" Art Projects:
After learning the inspiration and techniques of each Master the children are ready for the real fun. Your classoom will transform into an art studio as the well-equipped teacher leads the protégés on a step-by-step journey through the art project. Often in the same medium as the Master, the students will discover their creativity while developing confidence in their own unique abilities.
