7th Grade Art (2009-2010)
In 7th grade art each student studies the elements of
art and principles of design through creative art
experiences. Students experience the use of a variety of
media along with studying artists and art history.
During the nine-week course, art projects will include
drawing, painting, ceramics, an Adopt an Artist
Project/Report, a Self Evaluation and a study of art
history. Students are required to keep a notebook, which
will include slide notes, sketches, and tests. Papers
must be kept neat and organized. All students are to
bring a pencil and eraser to every class. They may wish
to keep an art shirt in their locker. Each student is
expected to be courteous at all times. They are to
remain in their places unless they are getting supplies.
During presentations and demonstrations students are
expected to be attentive. Quiet talking is permitted
while working. All students are responsible for cleaning
up all messes and returning all materials to their
proper places. I expect all students to be working
everyday in class. For each day students are not working
2 (two) points will be deducted from their final grade.
All art students will have art work on display in the
annual art show. Students are responsible for their
work. Students that do not take their art work home will
have their final art grade lowered.
Please remember to send a 1" - 1 1/2" ring binder
notebook so your artist can keep their notes and papers
organized. There is an open note test at the end of each
art history study.

8th Grade Enrichment Art (2009 - 2010)
In the 8th. grade Enrichment Art program, students are
expected to grow in their understanding and appreciation
of contemporary and historical art as found in various
cultures as well as their own personal artistic
development through the use of art criticism, art
aesthetics and studio projects. Enrichment Art is a
year-long class; students work on teacher directed
assignments and on projects of their own choice. Student
Self Evaluations will be written on each art work.
Each student is to bring their 7th.
grade art folder back to school. We will continue
filling it with notes, sketches, handouts, self
evaluations, etc. Papers must be kept neat and
organized. This will be a nice record of their junior
high art experience. All students are to bring a pencil
and eraser to every class. They are to remain in their
