1st Semester almost over, a wonderful 1st group at the high school. I will be sorry to see them go...

1. Using only Low Fire will streamline all production :-)
2. Students MUST have small sketchbook... 1st Grade
3. Each class take notes and draw in order to record requirements and build repertoire of designs... 
4. Intro in depth Elements/Principles/Style/Subject Matter
5. Set up Resources and get them in the habit of Drawing and brainstorming ideas like the middle school
6. No Participation Grade... Each work graded on 3 c's
7. Setting up Blogs only 3 tabs 1)Home Reflections 2)Inspiration and tutorials 3)About the Artist- Statement
8. Every class period drawings with Line and shape will be done along with note taking
