Art Plans for November 17th through 21st, 2014

Greetings!

What a beautiful (but cold) weekend it was!  Hope you enjoyed it. And--hooray!--we will have a "regular week" (if such a thing exists at a middle school).  In Art we have started our Drawing Unit, so this week we will focus on drawing with pencils, then the next two weeks we will use charcoal, so expect your student to be covered with one or the other while we work in these media.  Here is what to expect this "Movember" week:

MUSTACHE MONDAY--Students will be using the Art pencils to sketch geometric shapes.  This assignment will be due at the end of the period, so no homework.

BLUE TIE TUESDAY--Students will be sketching fruit in pencil.  This will also be due at the end of the period.

BLUE SPORTS TEAM WEDNESDAY--Students will work in pencil to sketch a "Beanie Baby".  As usual, this will be due at the end of the period.

DENIM THURSDAY--Students will use Art pencils to sketch seashells--our first attempt at overlapping.  Due at the end of the period.

BLUE OUT FRIDAY--Students will work in pencil to sketch leaves, again using overlap.  This assignment will be due at the end of the period.

The only "announcement" I can think of right now is that I will be gone on Friday, but I have the same substitute teacher as before, and it sound like the students & she got along famously.  As always, if you have a question, comment, or concern, please feel free to contact me.  My email address is humblem@tenino.k12.wa.us  and the phone number in our classroom is (360) 264-3644.

Have a wonderful week,
Michele Humble
