Pre-Algebra: We reviewed for our quiz tomorrow.
Art 7/8: Students have started a clay tile. Each student chose a word that has some sort of value to them or describes them. The tile is designed about this word and the word is included in the tile. The tile must include "positive" images (building onto the clay) and "negative" images (carving into the clay.) During my medical leave absence, students completed a "Toppling Names" drawing, "Positive/Negative Bug" drawing and started a "Mexican Wood Carving" drawing.
Advanced Art grade 8: Students are beginning "Fruit Bowl Still Lifes." They are choosing their container and various fruits. Each table is designing their own still life. These drawings will be completed using bogus paper and chalk pastels. During my absence, students completed the "Circular Non-Objective" drawings and started a color pencil value study of their hands.
