This unit will be so much fun!  I can't wait to see you Monday so we can get started!

WELCOME!

I want to welcome my new students for the second semester!  I can't wait to see what kind of talent is hiding inside all of you!  Let the fun begin!  

Ceramics Unit!

We will begin our ceramics unit this week!  Make sure to study your notes...you need to earn an 80 or above on the ceramics test before you use the clay.  This week we will cover the Golden Rules of Ceramics, ceramics  vocabulary, and we will learn how to work that cool potter's wheel!  I will reveal your project at the end of the week!  

Painting Party!

The painting party was a success!  Thank you to all who attended...WE HAD A BLAST!  I have decided to hold another painting party, or two, at the end of January!  Here is a picture of some of the pieces from our first painting party.  Thank you so much for all of the support, we raised a lot of money for the Art department :)

Aboriginal Art Due Wednesday!

Please remember your Aboriginal Paintings are due no later than next Wednesday! You can complete the painting at home or stay after school Wednesday so you can meet the deadline. Michaels has acrylic paint in small bottles for less than a dollar if you choose to paint at home! Make sure it says "Acrylic Paint," not "Oil Paint." I am so excited for our texture unit...let the scratch art begin!  

6th grade...

Coach Wood's math class is joining us this week!  We are having fun painting by PRIME numbers!  Who says you can't combine art and math?

Aboriginal Art

 We will continue our Aboriginal Dot Paintings this week in Art!  Below are some works in progress!  Let the dotting continue!
