A Note From the Art Teacher-
This website is a special site designed for the parents and is not a regular
part of my teaching methods. I am providing this site for you to be able to
assist your child and make sure that you have all the same knowledge that I
give your child during their class time. I do post the homework on the
marker board every Monday (and it stays on the board until the next Monday)
and I constantly change the assignment at the beginning of each week. I also
give the assignment to the students at the end of the period verbally so the
student have both the visual and verbal cues given to them for the homework.
I also post the artist of the month and the master's work on the marker board
and change them every new month. So students also have the visual of who
they can write about if they are interested in doing that months artist or
the master's work. I am not required by the state to post the information
on the website but feel that the best way to help your child is to always
have a way that the parents can check up and find out information that is
being given to your child. This site is a benefit to you and your child. If
there are questions or concerns you have about your child I am always willing
and able to discuss them through email, phone, or conference. Thank you.

All art classes have homework every week. On the second week of class all
the students will need to have a sketchbook which they will be responsible
for. If they wish they can purchase a sketchbook from several stores. We do
offer a sketchbook at the school store that fits the size required for the
class for $8.00. They will also need to have a purple pocket folder to carry
the sketchbooks they create so they can safely carry the book home and back
to class weekly. Subject matter is assigned at the end of the class period.
If your child does not remember what the homework is, please have them create
a free-drawing. If your child is in second grade they are expected to draw in
pencil at least half of the page. The students in third grade must draw in
pencil filling the whole page. Fourth graders must draw the picture covering
the whole page and color at least half of the page. Fifth graders need to
draw and color the whole page. Students can color in crayons or color
pencils. As of the second week of school I will be listing the
weekly assignments for homework on this page. The assignment topic is
assigned on the week it is listed under and the work will be due to the
teacher the following week. This will assist you in finding out what your
child was assigned for the week in question.
