Hello BNS Families! Welcome to the 2020-2021 school year. We are getting things ready, and what a year this will be! I'm Patti Rowland and I teach K - 8th grade art at Blacksburg New School. I am very much looking forward to learning some new ways to share art-making both at home and in school. About Art If you are familiar with BNS art, the class is composed of both guided and self-guided exploratory components which I have found to be the most effective combination for art discovery. This year I will be offering art in a flipped format, where I will be posting a guided step project in a video (they will be works in progress!) that will be watched by ALL students at home during a convenient time. I will facilitate the students who are in school during their scheduled art time, which might also be a good time for the remote students to work on their art as well. I would like for the designated art time to include both guided art and self guided/choice art making.
Here are some of the All School art happenings (and have become somewhat of a tradition).
If you are a New School oldie but goodie, then you are just keeping your eyes open as new information is being introduced about the flipped class. Look for Art Zoom office hours as well. If you are putting the NEW in New School, then please look out for an invitation from Artsonia and respond to start the student gallery. If you would like to participate, parent permission for your child/ren is required. Visit the Artsonia website (https://www.artsonia.com/parents) for more information. Also, keep an eye out as this new format is rolled out using Canvas. I’m really looking forward to this year and what it has to bring. I’d love to hear from you and/or your child. Feel free to e-mail me at [email protected]. Check out http://bnsartstudio.weebly.com/ (new info coming soon!) to follow the happenings of the art room!Thanks for sharing your creative children. More to come! Patti

Hello, my name is Patti Rowland and I am the art teacher for grades K - 8 at Blacksburg New School. I feel very fortunate to be able to have each class for an hour two times a week. Teaching at Blacksburg New School gives me the opportunity to explore and create a curriculum that incorporates choice-based learning, which serves the varying processing styles of our young artists.
