Heads up for Tomorrow & Grade status

Tomorrow (Friday, January 18, 2013) I will be out chaperoning a field trip. Art 1 students are to continue their project. Art 2, will have an alternate assignment since their current project is rather messy and I don't want give my substitute a heart attack. What they will be doing will be completed during class and turned in at the end of the class for a grade.

Grade status- I am 1.5 Art 1 classes away from getting Scratch Art projects graded. I hoped to of gotten them all finished this afternoon, but something came up and I was not able to. I will be taking it all home and hoping to have the gradebook completely updated by Tuesday.

Reminder that we have a 3 day weekend this weekend, no school on Monday, January 21. I hope everyone has a great weekend and returns back safely.

Art 1 Grade update

Scratch-Art projects were due last week. I however have not been able to get them graded. I hope to get to them tomorrow. Since they were turned in we've jumped right into new lessons that require lots of attention. So if you see a blank in the gradebook it should be filled soon. Weekly Participation descriptions have been entered through the end of this grading period and will be filled also.

Today

Okay- I don't know what the deal is. My RSS feed is not automatically posting to my Twitter or Facebook accounts. I am working on that.

For today and Monday-

Art 1- Day 2 of Grid Practice and on Monday they will recieve their portaits and will start gridding out their images and their project paper.

Art 2- Last day to review/practice gridding and will practice Charcoal. I will be taking pictures of the students who did not have an image ready for today. I call it my 'Just in Case' group of portraits. I will have their image 'just in case' they don't bring one in on Monday. If they do not have an image for this Charcoal project ready or if they refused to allow me to take their portrait, they will receive an automatic Zero for their Summative grade. Monday, they will start prepping their project paper for their project.
