Introduction to Drawing

Hosted by Monart:
This is an introduction to representational drawing geared to the attention span and motor coordination of 4 to 7 year olds. Students work on their ability to recognize the elements of shape and combine them in drawing the creatures from nature and objects from their world. Cost is $64/month with a $10 signup fee.

Students will be encouraged to ask questions in a chat forum during class. There will be polls taken to ensure the needs of the class are being taken into consideration. Is the class too slow? Is it too fast? Do you have any questions? At the end of each class students will be encouraged to take a photo or scan of their drawings and send them to: drawings@monart.com so that we can better assess the lesson modality and how it is translating to the individual students. This will enable us to tailor our lessons more closely to the student’s needs.

Media: Graphite Pencils, Pens, Colored Pencils, Markers us to tailor our lessons more closely to the student’s needs.

Students in our “LIVE” class will will be encouraged to ask questions in a chat forum during class. They can additionally talk to the teacher, come online easily and share their picture for clarity (if desired) when asking questions. There will be polls taken to ensure the needs of the class are being taken into consideration. Is the class too slow? Is it too fast? What questions do you have?

Students in our “REPLAY” classes will not have the interactive feedback of a “LIVE” class, however, they can still learn quite a bit from watching. These classes are priced slightly lower to make them affordable to all. These classes will be pre-recorded earlier in the same week (so yes, they are still “new” lessons).
