This is the wiki website I have created for my eighth grade classes. This site is being used as an assessment tool in my classroom. It is a creative way for students to display their awesome artwork, and interact with each other offering positive reinforcement and constructive criticism. They can also link to pages that include art games, videos, and terms used in the classroom.
