Students in third grade will continue to learn about the Principles of Design. During this year, students will review and build upon their knowledge of the Principles of Design and Elements of Art. In addition, third grade artists will be introduced to the 8 Studio Habits of Mind to begin to understand that the artist is more than a maker. See more about the Studio Habits on the Curriculum Page. Students will continue to learn material care and safety with an increasing focus on student choice and independence.
