On Friday, students used Moodle to show me what they know about Art by taking a Visual Arts pre-test. This is being graded on participation only and the data will be used as a driving force behind instruction. Basic Art concepts dealing with Elements and Principles of Design were covered as well as understanding of how various Art materials function.
It was very informative for me to see where the kids are at and what I need to do to get them to where they need to be. I look forward to using this test again at the end of the term and comparing the results!
In addition, students also used this website to do their social contracts and artist statements. If you notice a missing grade for either of those projects in PowerSchool, then go to Moodle to get the work done.
7th grade students also finished their Modified Blind Contour Drawings and I took their pictures for an upcoming PhotoShop project.
In After School Art, students finished their Artist Trading Cards to be swapped with a school in Canada and are now preparing plaster strips for mold making next week!
Students also have the option of attending the ArtPrize field trip on the 23rd. More information can be found on my website.
It was a very fun, exciting, and full week of activities - and it's only the first week of school! Can't wait to see what happens next week and each week after as we get into full swing!
