 All your lessons for the full year evolve around 4 major art standards that you will use the rest of your life. These standards were created by Daniel Bonnell and the renown educator Robert Morazano. The essence of the lessons you will learn in Mr. Bonnell’ class embrace the fact that when you learn using all your senses then you retain the information as well as experience the information. The institution of education teaches learning through the mind, art is taught through the heart. These four standards embrace the heart over the mind. This is the essence of all great art no matter what the medium is.
