THE "ART"ICLE

Visual arts at Gullett had been off to an amazing start to the year! We are wrapping up Unit 1- getting to know each other and the art room and are headed into Unit 2, which is Line and Shape for K-1st and "Artists, Artworks, and Art techniques" for 2nd-5th.

In AISD our Kinder-1st grade Curriculum is based on the Elements of Art and the Principals of Design and our 2nd-5th Grade Curriculum is based on the Studio Habits of Mind.
