Photography: Developing Your Vision

Discover how amazing our bodies are through art! Each day, we celebrate a new way our bodies move, feel, and express. We stretch and trace our outlines to create life-sized portraits, stamp handprints and footprints into colorful patterns, build clay models inspired by our bones, and paint swirling shapes that capture the energy of dance and play. We explore textures to spark our senses and create faces that show big feelings. Throughout the week, we use drawing, painting, and sculpture to see ourselves in exciting new ways—inside and out. At the end of the class, every child proudly shares artworks that celebrate the wonder of being uniquely them!

We celebrate bravery as young artists discover how powerful it can be to speak up, stand out, and care deeply. Each day, we explore the stories of historical figures who changed the world—not through conflict, but through courage, creativity, and compassion. We meet heroes like Joan of Arc, a young girl who led with strength and belief in herself; Harriet Tubman, who guided others to freedom in the darkness; and Guy Fawkes, who shows that people have always questioned unfair rules. We keep stories simple, visuals vibrant, and conversations open-ended, inviting children to connect with big ideas in ways that make sense for them. Through storytelling, movement, and hands-on art-making, children express their own bold ideas using a wide variety of materials, discovering that bravery isn’t just in history—it’s in all of us.

Young artists discover the power of wondering, investigating, and imagining the world in new ways. Each day, we meet a real-life scientist who followed their curiosity to make amazing discoveries. We learn about Rosalind Franklin, who used light to explore the building blocks of life; George Washington Carver, who saw beauty and possibility in every plant; and Mae Jemison, who dreamed of the stars—and reached them. We keep stories simple, visuals vibrant, and conversations open-ended, inviting children to see science as a playful, creative adventure. Through storytelling, hands-on experiments, and art-making, children become the scientists of their own world—asking questions, making discoveries, and sharing what they see.
