Classroom Rules



My classroom rules are vital to creating a safe space where art can be made and students are comfortable sharing ideas. These rules will help make an environment that runs smoothly, and will allow my students to be productive and happy.
  
  
  1. No disrespectful language or behavior to teacher or fellow students. Use appropriate language. Be kind.
  2. Clean up after yourself, you are responsible for anything you use! Alert teacher of any major spills or serious problems.
  3. No FOOD in the art room. Water is ok, please recycle empty bottles.
  4. Technological distractions are NOT allowed and will be confiscated.
  5. Alert the teacher if you need to leave the room during class. (Bathroom break etc..) Make eye contact with teacher to notify her that you are leaving.
  6. Attendance policy: Here is an attendance scenario- You are more than 2 minutes late and you...
  1. Have a pass and hand it to the teacher (GOOD JOB!)
  2. Quietly enter the room with no pass and sign the LATE BOOK. (The late book is a record that you are not absent and will save you from getting a detention for skipping class.)
  3. Realize it is the second time you are late to class. YOU GET A DETENTION WITH THE TEACHER! NOOOOOO!! :(
*** Refrain from lining up at the door at the end of class. (If you do, you will be cleaning for the teacher.)***

Texture and Animal Emphasis Project

This lesson was inspired by two separate ideas, the first involving the use of pattern and texture, and the second, applying color theory to create a focal point. The discussion started with the concept of texture and visual texture and how one can create different textures. I held a contest where each table was challenged to write down as many examples of textures they could think of. The winning group had over sixty different textures!!! We then talked about how to draw these textures and practiced by repeating lines and/or shapes. The next part of the lesson was selecting an animal to be the focal point of the piece. The students were asked to create emphasis through their use of a color scheme demonstrating their understanding of color relationships from the color theory unit. A critique was held to view and talk about the finished product. Check them out below...
