Conference Period: 7:40-8:28(1st Period)
Course Description: Art is a class which combines a little Art History, a variety of projects, drawing
assignments, personal art critiques and an art show. Throughout the year students will be studying artwork
from other countries such as Africa, Asia, and Mexico, as well as various art movements and artists.
Students will have the opportunity to use a wide range of art supplies and mediums while in my classroom.
Guidelines:
1. Students must be inside the classroom before the start of class, remember there is no bell for the start
of class. Students must be prompt! Students will be dismissed from their seat at the end of the class
period.
2. Students will get their art process journal and check the board for instructions. Students will
complete their starter and any drawing activities in their journal.
3. Students are to write all notes into their process journal and use it as a reference for when working
on their artwork.
Materials: Students are expected to bring the following supplies to class everyday:
Sharpened Pencil
Art Sketchbook

All students will have an Art Sketchbook. ALL SKETCHBOOKS MUST BE 9X12(you can
purchase at Walmart, Target Michaels, Jo-Anns, Hobby Lobby and most office supply stores)The
purpose for this sketchbook is for the students to have a place to keep all of their assignments. But,
more then just a place for the students to store their materials the sketchbook is a place for students to
work on their artwork and evolve with their project as then research, create sketches and finally create
their artwork. The journals will be graded at the end of each quarter.
Absences and Make-up Work:
Students are expected to be in class. You cannot pass a class you do not attend. Therefore, excessive
absences may result in a failure. It is the responsibility of the student to collect missed work or notes. I
will accept make-up work within three days of an excused absence. All major projects or assignments
are due on the assigned date regardless of attendance. For each day after an assignment is due
10% will be taken off the final grade up to 50%, I will no longer accept after 5 days.
Grades/Grading Scale and Policy:
Quarter and semester grades, will be based on all earned points from classwork, homework, studio projects,
quizzes, tests, and their art journal. Student grades will be given every two weeks for you to monitor your
progress. Students will not receive credit for work that is not completed. Students will receive a zero for an
assignment that is turned in and not complete.
