Flipping for Art is new new, independent Art club for fourth and fifth grade Art students at Milton Elementary. Each month students will be given a new art challenge to complete. Students who successfully complete the challenge will be given the materials needed to complete the next challenge.
Students may work at their own pace and may decide to stop at any time. The purpose of Flipping for Art is to offer those students who demonstrate and aptitude for the visual arts an avenue for further developing their interest . We will also attempt to explore the viability of Art as a possible future career path. |
