WHAT WE'RE DOING IN CLASS....REMINDERS FOR STUDENTS, FYI FOR PARENTS
January 25, 2018 LAST DAY OF 2nd Quarter
Students have worked very hard this quarter on a life drawing unit. This is not easy work! But I'm happy to say that a large percentage of students report their drawing skills have improved "much more than I thought they would" or "more than I thought they would" when we began the unit.
Though the 2nd quarter officially ended this past Friday, some students brought their final value drawings home for completion over the weekend, due Tuesday, January 27th without penalty. All students were given the opportunity to complete the project at home if they were not happy with the grade they earned on Friday.
Another assignment that many students owe (also to be completed for HOMEWORK, due Tuesday without penalty. STUDENTS ARE BACK IN TECH MONDAY, JANUARY 26th!) is the final Q2 assessment. This assignment can be found in Ms. Robertson's GoogleClassroom and will either be entered as full credit/50 points (completed) or a zero/0 no credit (not completed)!
Grades for these final two Q2 assignments will be entered into PowerSchool on Sunday 1/25 but grades can still be improved upon. If necessary, please finish and hand in one or both of these assignments by Tuesday. Grades will be updated in PowerSchool before the Q2 report card goes home.

Since Ms. Robertson's last post, the Black Team students have created designs on individual portfolios using their names and BLOCK LETTERING techniques. Now students are engaged in a unit on LIFE DRAWING. The number of students reporting progress on his/her drawing skills is rising every day!
November 20, 2018
On the first day of Q2 students completed a pre-assessment on Google classroom. I just entered grades for this--25 points for completing/0 points for not completing. THIS CAN STILL BE MADE UP! If you (or your child) has a 0 for this assignment in PowerSchool my Google classroom, my code in zmaspp3. The assessment is all true/false and multiple choice. I'm expecting students may not know these terms yet and that's fine!
Last week students began working on a 6 x 6 square utilizing COLOR, PATTERN, and CONTRAST which will become part of a larger team mural. Some students may be bringing this home to complete over the Thanksgiving holiday.
We now are beginning our portfolio projects utilizing block lettering (along with the above ELEMENTS and PRINCIPLES of ART and DESIGN).
HAVE A GREAT THANKSGIVING!
