TURN IN SKETCHBOOKS for 2nd Trimester Grading

The end of the trimester is coming up, which means you need to turn in your sketchbooks to be graded.
You should have ten drawings--look at the "sketchbook assignments" page to see a list of all the assignments. Extra drawings are always good too :)
Make sure your drawings are complete. That means each page should be filled up with your drawing and there should be lots of detail!

DUE DATES:
Ms. Balicki and Mr. Eng's Classes: Tuesday, February 22nd
Ms. Kelly's Class: Wednesday, February 23rd
Ms. Tresselt, Ms. Payton and Mr. Williams' Classes: Friday, February 25th

How Art Teachers Saved the World!

This comic strip came with a catalog of school art supplies. I liked it so much I wanted to share it with all of you. :)

New Tabs

You may have noticed, I made some changes to the look of my blog. At the top of the page there are now tabs for different subjects. I will be posting grade level pictures and updates about what the students are working on in art.

There is also a tab called "Art Room Wish List." There you will find a list of items you may have at home that you can donate to the art room.

The sketchbook assignments will now be listed under the "sketchbook assignments" tab. The students will be doing ten sketchbook drawings each trimester.

I hope these changes make it easier to find things and navigate through my blog.
