Exploring God’s World Through Art
Step inside Ms. Gildea’s Lower School art classroom, where each project invites students to explore a different country and discover the creativity of God.
An art project can open a window to the world. In Ms. Gildea’s Lower School classroom, students explore different countries through their artwork, discovering new places and ways of creating along the way.
Building on a curriculum shared by her sister, who also taught art at Covenant, Ms. Gildea brings her own love of teaching and creating to each lesson. Watch as she shares how these experiences help students recognize that we serve a creative God and see their own creativity as a gift.
