Special Areas

 

 

My name is Mrs. Bricely, and  I teach Visual Art to students in grades kindergarten through fifth grade here at Daves Creek Elementary.  This will be my seventeenth year of teaching Visual Art, and my seventh year at Daves Creek.  I am originally from Ohio, but my family and I love living in Georgia.  We will be going on an adventure this year in Art class.  We will be meeting famous artists, traveling all over the world, learning about the elements and principles of art, and exploring a variety of ways to create art.  Students will be exposed to art through technology, literature, and visual reproductions.  They will be hands-on learners and bring their own personalities into every project.  They will understand how art is connected to every facet of life, and can be used to enhance learning in all subject areas.  We will have so much fun, that sometimes we'll forget that we are actually learning!   

 

 

* We will be using Original Works this year for our Fall Art Fundraiser. Original Works is a company that works with schools to raise money for their art programs.  The DCES Art Program does not receive any money from PTA, state, or district funds.  Therefore, this is the only way we can get money for art supplies for our school.  Your child will have fun showing you their masterpiece online, and there will be a variety of products to choose from that will be personalized with your childs art.  They make wonderful holiday gifts and many products are very useful.  Be on the look out for more information coming this Fall!!*
