Middle School Art Teacher: Regina Bird, regina.bird@shschicago.org
The Middle School art curriculum engages and challenges the students and develops art as a language, giving students a voice in personal expression, while implementing art history and global cultural studies.

Experimentation and creative thinking are fostered as children learn to explore their imaginations in an encouraging and supportive atmosphere. Activities include: drawing skills (pencil and charcoal); basic color theory; pastels and watercolor; artwork of historic cultures; and study of significant artists. Students assemble and use a sketchbook for their Primary School years.
