Art at Woodrow Wilson
Ms. Sisitsky and
Ms. Forman
All children at Woodrow Wilson School have one art lesson each week for one hour or two art lessons a week for a half hour each. Students either come to the upstairs art room, room 202 with Ms. Sisitsky, or have Art with Ms. Forman in Room 103. The Art Program is very well rounded with some lessons focused on teaching drawing skills and techniques, while other lessons are project based to enhance classroom learning. Some lessons teach about famous artists and others help with the development of creative thinking skills. Materials vary to give children an opportunity to experiment and challenge themselves with new experiences. Both two dimensional, and three dimensional art are explored. Third, fourth and fifth graders are involved in the “Visual Thinking Strategies” program, partnered with the Davis Museum at Wellesley College.All lessons encourage the students to think like an artist.
