"Harvest" Creative Curriculum Guide
November’s theme is Harvest, and this month we explore gathering and collecting in the familiar sense of the word, as well as the harvesting of natural materials, bountiful ideas, and a child’s endless imagination. Make a habit of getting outside to find all the free goodies you need for our open-ended art and play invitations. With our smallest supply list yet, you will be so grateful for the opportunity to use what you have outside and in the house to develop a simple, creative practice for your family or classroom. From leaf rubbings to pinecone shake-painting to outdoor games, our guide is filled with easy, accessible ideas. Harrison is back with four new Art Playdates where he brings the guide to life in his interactive videos. Cozy up with your family this month as you express gratitude for nature’s harvest.
Our curriculum is inclusive and honors each child’s individuality and way of thinking and working. Consider each guide like a beautiful magazine where creativity meets education. They are more than a collection of art ideas, they are the KEY to a cohesive, child-centered, manageable creative practice for your family at home, or to integrate with your homeschool or classroom curriculum.
Our Whole Child Guide is our original 26-page guide and includes:
An introduction to the month's theme, or “Big Idea”
20 invitations (one for each weekday of the month), 10 art and 10 play, that can be cut into cards and kept in a box as a resource to build upon
A master supply list that leans heavily on recycled and natural materials and easy-to-find, inexpensive art supplies
4 daily weekly rituals for mindfulness, connection, and physical and emotional development to help frame the weeks
A rich, teacher-approved picture book list with an emphasis on diversity, inclusion, earth stewardship, and kindness
8 creative snack ideas that complement the theme
4 ways to extend the big idea through project-based learning skills such as research, reflection, documentation, and connecting with others
A list of life skills learned through the month’s creative invitations
Curricular connections within the guide’s creative offerings in math, literacy, science and social studies
An artist spotlight featuring living and working artists
2 more in-depth projects for weekends or longer term classroom projects
A master one-page calendar of the month ahead that you can print and post on the art room wall for easy reference
