Daves Creek Elementary

Visual Art

In Art Class at DCES, students are exposed to a variety of styles of art, media, and techniques. We learn about art history, art from various cultures throughout our world, and especially how art connects with all facets of life. Our school is becoming STEM-certified, so many lessons have a STEAM theme! Art is very important to Social-Emotional Learning too, and students are made aware of how our projects connect with our SEL Voyager trait for each month.

Art Club

There are two Art Clubs offered at Daves Creek. One is a 1st-2nd Grade Art Club, and the other is a 3rd-5th Grade Art Club. They both take place after school, and explore new ways to make art both 2-D and 3-D.

Students are constantly, moving, playing, singing, and making music in the Daves Creek music room! Our students enjoy a lot of fun music-making opportunities that promote musicality and also cross-curricular connections with STEAM and Social-Emotional Learning! Some of our activities include: xylophones and other barred instruments, tubano drums, cup drumming, parachute movement, Chrome Music Lab, and Specdrums!
