Encourage your child’s enthusiasm for art and help develop his or her drawing skills with a Young Rembrandts™ drawing class. Young Rembrandts™ Drawing curriculum uses a structured stepwise format to teach elementary students useful drawing skills, while developing creative thinking strategies. Students deconstruct complex objects into familiar shapes; then use problem-solving and imagination to make their own works of art. Innovative reasoning skills are developed through creativity, collaborative communication, and critical thinking. A variety of engaging images challenge students with realistic, abstract and graphic art styles. Our Artistic Drawing curriculum develops academically relevant skills, including spatial-motor planning, mental discipline and fine motor skills, while providing a fun, enriching experience for our students. New lesson every week with six-year curriculum! Students never see a repeat lesson while enrolled from kindergarten to 6th grade.

Who doesn't love building with LEGOs?!? In this class, we will build (pun intended!) upon this excitement by teaching LEGO enthusiasts about engineering – how to make a plan, execute it, reflect upon it, consider the physics of it, and make changes for next time. Tapping into our executive functioning skills, we will use our imaginations to build new innovations while learning about the classics (Eiffel Tower, Burj Khalifa, Big Ben, etc!). This course will conclude with a final “showcase of learning” during which families will be invited to the classroom to see what has been learned, and maybe even to build alongside their children if they're lucky!

Kids have a blast solving problems, designing projects and creatively expressing themselves. Level 1: Make short stories by adding characters/backgrounds. Apply elements of animation (e.g. movement, rotation and speed). Create dimension and depth by shrinking, growing, and hiding characters (sprites)
