Food Sculptures

Let the building begin! After reviewing food as a subject matter and viewing art works from Claes Oldenburg and others, the 8th grade began paper mâché food!

Welcome Back~ 2014-2015 School Year

                        The first day is here!
All 8th grade students will need a spiral bound sketchbook or a folder with plain white paper. If you are interested in buying a sketch book, Hobby Lobby usually has a weekly 40% off coupon! Makes it cheaper than buying at WalMart!
Below is what we covered the first day!

Will have helpful hints and assignments


This is a new schedule. You will have art for only 12 weeks. The trimester will end in November. In that time we will complete many art experiences.
But, and it is a big BUT, you have to be on task with me!
There will beat least 3 big long term projects as well as several shorter projects.
You will be expected to have a sketchbook or an alternate folder or work.


Classroom needs: 
Everyday: Pencil!!!!!!!
Your sketchbook
and your Agenda Book (Even in 9th period!)
Projects due dates will be posted on the side board. Plenty of time will be given to complete a project or assignment.
Projects and assignments will lose 10% everyday that they are late.
Something is better than nothing! Remember this!


MARKS:
Will be given!

There will be no warning for throwing things, it is an automatic yellow. You are only here for 40 minutes, you can refrain from throwing!
