Experience Art engages students in explorations of art, design, and visual culture. The Student Book offers eight units of study grounded in Essential Questions and organized around art’s connection to Big Ideas such as Messages and Identity. As students investigate materials and processes, they develop a sense of themselves as serious artists. As they respond to others’ artworks, they make meaningful connections across the curriculum.
