Welcome Back!

We are starting another school year at Simis Elementary and in the art room. This year we will continue to build upon the lessons and concepts of the previous two years, and welcome many new students and families to our program. In the first few weeks you can expect your child to review the classroom expectations and the importance of sketchbooks. We will also talk about concepts, creativity, and craftsmanship. Teaching the students how to use the elements and principles of art (concepts), seek unique design solutions (creativity), and take their time and use care in creating their project (craftsmanship) will be my priority. If you would like to see the kind of work we do in art class, you can scroll down and check out some of the projects we worked on last year. Over the course of the year, I will be updating this site so you can see what we are currently working on. If you have a google, yahoo, or AIM account you can sign up to receive an email whenever there is a post and make comments on them.

Thanks,
Mr. Bilger
