Why do I need a Sketchbook?You will be doing a daily sketchbook assignment which will be given at the beginning of class each day.

Sketchbooks will be graded at mid-terms & end of term, most are worth 10 points each day.

Sketchbook assignments must be IN a sketchbook in order to be graded.

They also need to be in order by date.

They will be graded on completion, neatness and following directions

If you do a SUPREME job on sketches you could receive extra credit.

Do I need to be the best artist to get an A?

No- you just need to come every day, complete all the projects, assignments, and sketchbooks - doing your personal best work.

If you do all of the above – your artistic skills WILL improve and I will be happy to give you the A you deserve.

(there are a few opportunities for extra credit too)

Am I allowed to turn in late work in this class?

Yes Most assignments and projects will have a due–date and work won’t be graded until a few days after the due-date. After the project due-date, there will not be in class time to work on projects.

After work has been graded you will lose credit for turning in work late.

But- If you turn in work late- the highest grade you can get is a B. Turn it in on time and if well done if you have to have an A.

No seating chart, yet. Be comfortable, be good. Sit by someone who inspires your best, please! In a few days I will make a chart based on where you are sitting to help me learn your names.

No unsafe behavior.
