BCE ART Masterpiece

First graders are easily engaged and are interested in many things.

 

It is important to present one idea or tool at a time to them to support their cognitive abilities. At this age they particularly enjoy fantasy and make-believe. These students are moving from an egocentric outlook to an awareness of the world as it functions beyond their direct experience. They are refining their motor skills and have a strong interest in making things. At this age students have a hard time with abstract concepts. They do not engage with things that they cannot see in front of them.First graders are interested in artworks depicting subjects that are familiar to them, such as animals, family, and people engaged in everyday activities.
