    EA Art Team

    The East Aurora Elementary Art Team would like to inspire you with an assortment of Latin American art lessons designed to cross multiple grade levels. Our current focus is on Central America. Our curriculum is based on teaching the elements of art and often include cross-circular connections. We have posted the lesson plans and examples which were presented in an Illinois Art Education Association (IAEA) 2017 Conference workshop. We have also added additional materials to support the lessons.
