2.  During this term, we will: › Work on improving and building on techniques learned from last year. › Create art projects and assignments, both independently and collaboratively. › Apply critical thinking and problem solving strategies to your own work, as well as others. › Demonstrate an awareness for the value of art and culture.

3.  Now I know we went over this last year, but there are some new things to keep in mind this year: › There are to be no cell phones in class whatsoever. I don’t care if you need to txt your bestie, if I see it, you will be asked to leave it on my desk until the end of the day. › Keep your bags, hats, purses, lipstick, poodles and coats in your locker....especially poodles, they scare me. › During instructional or tutorial time, please make sure you are listening and not talking about how awesome your new zombie iphone app is.

4. › Make sure you come prepared to class with a pencil and eraser. › Treat others and their property with respect. › Always clean up after yourself...especially glitter. You know how much I HATE glitter!! › Be supportive of others and their ideas › All assignments must be turned in by the due date. › I don’t expect you to be Picasso, but I do expect you to try your best and attempt all projects!
