Grades
Students in art are graded on their behavior, effort, participation and completion of assignments in art class.
Art Studio golden rules
All students in art class are expected to achieve their personal best. To do well in art class, one needs to possess a positive attitude, be prepared to try new things, (perhaps sometimes stepping outside the comfort zone), have excellent listening skills, great cooperation and teamwork skills, and a willingness to meet essential requirements for each project.
Art class is a departure from the regular classroom environment. Outside of the regular classroom one will expect to be an active participant, to use a variety of materials, some messy, some calming, some will prompt excitement. Feelings regarding projects will range from seeming to be effortless to challenging and will be different for everyone as we all have our own strengths and opportunities.
Art class comes with a different set of rules that must be followed.
Clean up … keep your area clean as well as the art studio, be a part of the team and be willing to help clean up even if it is not your mess.
Let go, enjoy… creating your personal best is the goal, not perfection.
Listen and follow directions…. be a positive and active participant while using all equipment tools and materials in a safe manner.
Raise your hand if you have a comment, question, observation. Blurting out is very disruptive to class.
Respect all…. the art studio, your classmates, your teacher, the tools, materials and supplies.
As a member of this class I promise to:
Show respect to others, myself, and to the art studio.
Give my personal best effort and come prepared each day with my art t-shirt ( middle school students)
Not exhibit any behavior that prevents my teacher from guiding the class or prevents anyone, including myself from learning.
Great Rules for Living (author unknown) and in the art studio…..
If you open it, close it.
If you turn in on, turn it off.
If you break it, admit it.
If you borrow it, return it.
If you value it, take care of it.
If you make a mess, clean it up.
If you take it out, put it back.
If it belongs to someone else, and you want to use it, get permission.
If you do not know how to operate it, leave it alone.
If it will brighten someone’s day, say it.
