...and mix them with 7 discovery-based plant science topics:
1. Types of plants
2. Parts of a Plant
3. Shapes of Leaves
4. Parts of a Flower
5. Photosynthesis (my favorite!)
6. Plant Life Cycle

{Changing the schedule}
Does this schedule not align with your homeschool? No worries! Save the links you receive each week and spread them out over a whole year of school.This class is $12 a week for two 10-15 minute lessons, 2 drawings/projects, and group feedback from the teacher.
I offer sibling discounts (50% each additional learner, so please ask!).{How it works}In this class, you get 2 video art lessons per week. That totals to 42 ART VIDEO LESSONS!
I've set up this course to be done within a semester. However, there is SO much content in here that it could easily be spread out into a full elementary school year.
{Feedback from me}I want to know all of my students! That's why I've linked an Outschool group to this FLEX class for free. Inside the Welcome email, you'll be receiving a promo code for a spot on my Nature Art Group. That will allow you to talk to me, ask questions, and get feedback. It is also a safe, fun place for your learners to interact with other kids and share their art!
{Extra info}-Five and six year-olds are allowed to take this class. However, if your learner does not have a strong drawing hand yet, I would encourage you to be ready to assist or to pair them with an older sibling. -Optional: You can place all the finished drawings and projects into a 3-ring binder (I did!). They're all vertical so it works nicely. This also creates a great resource for future reference.
