Dear Parents & Students,
Happy New Year! It is hard to believe that it is 2010 and we only have two weeks left in the first semester.
This is a critical time in art because all projects for all classes must be by this Friday, January 8. The classroom will be open at lunch each day. Next week is studio cleanup, with one exception. Ceramics students have a final on Wednesday--don't forget to study!
Wondering about your grades? Here is what you need to do:
-
Check in Pinnacle to see what projects or work are/is missing or marked '0'
-
Decide whether you turned the work in and it was not returned, turned work in and it was returned to you needing to be reworked, or if you have not done/or turned in the work
- Based on your answer do the following:
-
Look in the lost and found bin to see if your name or period number was missing, and turn it in if you find it, the grade will be entered into the gradebook without any points deducted
-
Rework the project based on comments from Ms. Griffin [ask at lunch on Tue./Thu. if you don't know what needs to be done], and then resubmit the work writing 'resubmit + date' in the upper right hand corner under you name and period number. Work will be regraded and the new grade entered in the gradebook without any points deducted
- Complete your work and turn it is, it will be graded and grade entered without any points deducted
- Finally, if none of these fit your situation, come see me at lunch on Tue or Thu and we'll fix the problem right away!
Please, if you have any questions or concerns do not hesitate to email me at griffin_cynthia@k12.ca.us. Also, watch the website for changes to the layout as I continue to grow the art program and incorporate more digital technology into the classroom.
Warmest regards for a life filled with art,
Cynthia Griffin
