Hello fabulous Volunteer Art Instructors!This is YOUR webpage--dedicated to providing guidance, ideas, reminders, and information so you can be the best Artie you can be! If there's something you'd like to see on this page, please complete the form at the bottom. Thank you for all you do for our school!
You are invited to explore the art room. Just a few minutes before your pick up your student(s) or after drop off can not only help you find your way around but spark many ideas for art instruction. Remember to incorporate the elements of art in your lesson plans whether through medium, method, movement or artist. These lessons will become layers giving your students powerful context for social and emotional learning.

Nevada Museum of Art Educator Series
Offered 10 times a year, held the first Wednesday of every month (excluding July & December). Includes a presentation, discussion and activity based on the Museum's collections and current exhibitions as they relate to the Nevada Academic Content Standards. A light reception follows. Not only is this series FREE to our staff and art instructors, educators can acquire .5 teacher in-service credit for attending five (5) Educator Evenings and 1.0 credit for attending ten during August through July 31. Must RSVP with Jacque at Jacque.dawson@nevadaart.org. This gives them contact information and head count. After that, you will be sent an electronic reminder with registration link. |
Thank you again for all you do at Jessie Beck!
Special thanks go to our amazing PFA who make all of this possible through an annual art budget that pays for all our supplies, tools and materials. If you have questions, need assistance or just would like to discuss ideas, please let me know. I am here to assist and happy to help.
