Art for the Week of September 30th to October 4th

Greetings!

Hope this windy, wet weather doesn't have you too bogged down; it's the first of much more, I'm afraid.  Just a few odds & ends before I get to the Art for the week.  We have started to gear up for our fundraiser--the "Fun(d) Run".  It will take place on Wednesday, October 9th in the afternoon.  Hopefully your student has begun to collect pledges, which will go directly into the A.S.B. account.  This money goes directly to activities that impact our students, such as sports' uniforms, transportation for Outdoor School, prizes for contests, etc.  Please encourage your student to participate in this worthwhile event.  This upcoming week is "Spirit Week", so dressing up will be the order of the day.  Here's the schedule:  Monday--"Pajama Day", Tuesday--"Everyone Counts Day" (dress up in a jersey with a number on it), Wednesday--"Crazy Hair Day", Thursday--"Super Hero Day", and Friday--"Black & White Day" (6th graders wear white, 7th graders wear black, and 8th graders wear black & white).  There are prizes for outstanding participants, so please encourage your student to participate.

For Art this week, we will continue to work on the "Elements of Art"  book.  This is a big project, and it will take us several weeks to complete it.  Right now your student should have completed the title page as well as the page for "Line".  Monday we will begin to work on "Shape", Tuesday on "Form", and Wednesday on "Color" (this one will take us through the end of the week).  Please ask your student if you can take a look at what has been completed so far.

As always, please feel free to contact me.  The phone number in my classroom is (360) 264-3644 and my email address is humblem@tenino.k12.wa.us

Have a wonderful week,
Michele Humble
