Grading Policy
All students are required to do their best work and complete
all art projects: unless there are consecutive absences.
Students will be assessed and given marks in the following
areas:
Overall proficiency in art
Listening skills
Following directions
Behavior
No letter grades will be given. A
check means that they have met the standard, a minus means that they are below
standards and a plus means that they have exceeded the standard for their
grade level. Overall proficiency in art will be assessed using numbers,
1,2,3. Students are expected to reach 3 by the last trimester.
I will make these marks on the back of their art projects and/
or rubric that will be sent home with the project.
Standards
DCSD has written new standards for art. I will follow these
standards with every lesson that I teach. They are listed below in simpler
terms.
Standard 1- Observe and Learn to Comprehend
Standard 2- Invent and Discover to Create
Standard 3- Envision and Critique to Reflect
Standard 4- Relate to Community/World
