Lydia-Kay Blackburn has been teaching
art for over twenty years in public and private school systems and in her own
studio. She earned her Bachelors, Masters and Specialist degrees in art
education from the University of Georgia.
Lydia-Kay has a passion for
encouraging children to push themselves a little bit farther than they thought
they could go, resulting in the discovery of their creative potential while
building self confidence.
The Arttango art program offers public and
private elementary schools, teachers or home schools the opportunity to provide
an art education to there students in any or all grade levels, Kindergarten
through 5th grade. Students will learn about the elements of art and how to
apply each of them in their artwork.
The lessons in Arttango are based on
the National Art Standards and reinforce learning in other curriculum areas such
as language arts, math, science and history. Instruction is presented by Art
Specialist Lydia-Kay Blackburn via video format or you can obtain the lesson
projects online. The 180 art lessons that make up the K-5 curriculum can be
presented to the class in several ways, among them DVD player and TV, a computer
or a projector with a Smart Board or a screen. There is also an online version
available.
There are 30 lessons, one per week for the entire school year
for each grade. Each movie lesson lasts between 7 – 15 minutes and any part can
be replayed at any time. Prior to showing the lesson to your students, we
encourage the teacher to preview each lesson. This way they can gather the
needed materials and provide an adequate work area. The students are then
expected to have 30 – 40 minutes to work on their projects with adult
supervision. The material for the art projects are typically found in elementary
school classrooms.
