Davis WLR Program Overview

see davis wlr schedule
register for davis wlr
​Wholistic Learning Resources in Davis offers an exciting and enriching program in a beautiful, family-friendly atmosphere at an idyllic campus. While each of the classes engage the child in different ways and can stand alone for students who enroll in 1-3 classes, Rick and Jennifer will offer opportunities for inter-discipline projects. For example: students may build a percussion instrument in woodworking that can be decorated and completed in handwork and art classes, then shared during drum circle in music class. Scientific concepts will be integrated into classes as appropriate for content and the ages of enrolled students. To round off the experience, movement will be incorporated into classes. Breaks and lunch times are opportunities for children to build positive social relationships. Healthy snacks and lunches are encouraged.

Handwork

Explore a variety of fiber arts through stories and songs. Children will learn the arts of plant-dyeing, wool felting, weaving, spinning, knitting and crochet. Supplies will be provided for use during class time. Handwork tools will be available for purchase for families who would like to continue to explore fiber arts at home. All materials are handmade with natural and organic materials, and wool is sourced from local sheep. Children who have taken this class before will learn at a higher level.

Woodwork

Woodworking is a way to experience the process of shaping the world. The exertion of the
child’s feeling, thinking, and willing self, through the wood, has a lasting impression on the life of the growing child. The goal of the class is for the students to get an overall experience of the craft of woodworking by engaging them in different ways that wood is used as a material that can be transformed. They will rasp, sand, file, assemble, glue, stain and finish wood projects. The types of projects completed may include the following: weaving loom, flower press, wood blocks, pencil holder, percussive instrument and others.

Painting and Other Media

Every wet-on-wet watercolor painting is a window into a single moment of an artist’s experience! In this ten-week program, the instructor will focus primarily on this painting medium as a way of teaching the children to develop an artistic eye. With a few simple techniques, the students will achieve a level of creative proficiency in expressing their natural surroundings and curricular content. Other media, such as wet-on-dry watercoloring and perspective line drawing, may be introduced.
