Art
Through our DreamYard Arts Partnership, 4 teaching artists co-teach with Marble Hill teachers to offer: Visual Art, Dance, Drama, and African Drumming classes to our 9th and 10th grade students. Students choose one artform each year and study it for the whole year. In our multilingual student body, the arts becomes a common language for our students and another way they learn to communicate and express themselves. Students learn the materials, techniques and language of the artform they are learning as well as how to analyze and critique art. Throughout the year there are at least two times students share their work with their classmates, grade mates and the whole school. We celebrate our students creative work with the whole community at schoolwide events that parents/guardians also attend. As students move into the upper grades, we have a few art electives like NYC in Film, Photography, Sewing, Japanese Brush painting.... that may vary based on teacher ability to teach an elective. We also have a number of clubs that are focused on various art forms: Poetry, Crafts, Coding, Manga, to Arts Club. We also partner with DreamYard for our International Poetry Club that meets weekly and competes virtually with schools in Korea, Japan, the Phillipines, and Australia. Our poetry club has also travelled internationally to Korea, Japan and Australia to compete in-person.
