Art Club Is A Boon For Frankfort Square Elementery Students
Frankfort Square School's Art Club gives students a chance to cultivate creativity and connect with friends.
FRANKFORT SQUARE — Third- and fourth-grade students at Frankfort Square School exchange one day of recess for a chance to paint, draw and build in an enrichment program that helps them nurture their inner artist and build new friendships.
The students explore their creative boundaries using a mix of media — paint, chalk, paper, coffee filters, wood and ceiling tiles — during Art Club, a weekly program kids attend during their lunch and recess periods.
Art Club aims to help] them develop fine motor skills and hone their talents. It also teaches them higher-level thinking and problem-solving skills as students learn to plan, carry out and finish their projects.
