Kelly Kleyn
Hello, Hygiene Hawks!! My name is Kelly Kleyn, and I have been privileged to be the art teacher at Hygiene Elementary since 2005. I am so grateful to be spending my days creating and discovering art with the amazing students at our school!
I received my BA in Art Education from CSU, with an emphasis in Painting, in addition to a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics. I also hold a Master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction, focusing on integrating the arts across the curriculum.
In my free time I enj ... read moreoy reading, painting, playing board games, and laughing with my 10-year old son and my husband! My favorite things to draw and paint are people and animals. I also love exploring the power of color in art.
All Hygiene art students can expect to use a wide variety of fun art materials to learn about the various elements of art and principles of design. Using care with craftsmanship and taking responsibility for artistic choices are encouraged. Other topics addressed include understanding reasons for making art, art history, making art meaningful, communication through art, and technology integration.
I hope you enjoy browsing the Artsonia gallery! Please let me know if you have any questions, concerns, or just want to say hello! If you are interested in helping out with framing, labeling, and/or hanging art as our Arts Nights approach, please let me know, and thanks for stopping by! :)
