Welcome to Mrs. Roach's Art Class
Hello! I am Mrs. Roach, your Fine Arts teacher! I teach Art I, Art II, Ceramics, and KAP Drawing. .
My mission at Warrensville Heights High School for art class is not to teach the students how to draw, sculpt, and/or paint. My goal is to teach the techniques and processes to create art and to think creatively. In most of the art projects we explore, it is not important what the end product is. It is important that they learn the steps of the creative process and problem solving skills. This is good exercise for the creative, right side of the developing brain. I also teach students to develop their creative mind and use art as a way of healthy self expression, using the techniques that I teach in class. We will also be looking at art history and different worldly cultures as well as cross curricular activities.
This website is designed for the students to be able to reference the art class room at anytime. If a student misses class they will not need to miss the information given. Many days in class are not actual lecture or instruction, but rather, production days to produce quality art work, so the least amount of class missed will lead to better success. Each class and activity has a page for you to peruse, please take your time doing so. If you are missing school for an extended period of time I recommend that you e-mail me below in the case that you need more information than can be found on the website.
