What is The Master's Academy?

 


HISTORY
- A combination of arts history and world history so that the students understand where "all the pieces fit."

ART - Basic art skills and terminology as well as a study of the artists, and mediums used during a specific time period.

MUSIC - An exposure to the fundamental elements of music, reading, rhythm and notation, as well as learning about the composers, and styles of music from each period.

DRAMA - An exposure to the rudiments of stage terminology as well as theater games, and literature of the period done in a group setting to learn basic drama skills.

ELECTIVES - These options vary from location to location and by time period.

 

The Master's Academy of Fine Arts is an exposure level program which servers as the first step in a multi-phased approach to teaching the arts to homeschooled students ages 5-18. Meeting for a total of 25 weeks each year, students gather just one day a week for three hours.

Each year the arts are taught from a specific time period. The cycle begins with Ancient Civilizations, then moves on to the Medieval/ Renaissance, Baroque, Classical, Romantic, and Modern Periods over six years. Students do not need to begin at the Ancient Civilization period to experience a benefit from the program.

For the first fifteen weeks of the program students cover fundamental principles in the history, art, music and drama of a specific time period. The last ten weeks are geared towards elective options where students may choose to explore one or more areas of interest in greater detail. The year is capped off with an end-of-the-year event that showcases not only the performance classes, but also the visual arts and historical content that was learned over the year.
