Weekly Info About Our Year Long Art Class - Week 35
Hello again! Here's what's been going on in Art Class and what's coming up this week:
We are really winding down with our year of online art class. Module 16 with toothpick sculptures and Andy Goldsworthy inspired natural installations were due last Monday, April 25th.
This week we have moved on to exploring careers in art. Module 17 has one written assignment and one written presentation about nontraditional and traditional careers in art. It also has three extra credit assignments to help supplement 4th quarter grades. It is due May 9th.
It's progress report time again. This Tuesday I'll be releasing a report to schools reflecting the work done on Modules 14, 15, and 16. These reports should be available to schools on Thursday, May 5th. If students want a more up-to-date picture of their grades, they are welcomed to check their grades tab in Moodle. Grades are updated every weekday by noon.

Supplies for Module 17 and Module 18
In Module 17 we are sticking to digital media for these assignments. Students will need access to either PowerPoint software but may also branch out and use:
Google Slides
Prezi.com
Animoto.com
Piktochart.com
Infogr.am
or any other presentation method for their assignment.
Module 18: The Final Project and Presentation
Students will select the style, materials, and so forth for their final project. The materials should be similar to what the artist they've chosen to emulate would pick. For example, if students select Vincent Van Gogh, they should be prepared to use acrylic paints on medium sized painting using his style and brushstrokes.

If for any reason you are having trouble gathering these materials for class, please contact BOTH me and your ELA at your school. We both want you to have access to everything you need to be successful in this class.
We are in the home stretch of art class!
