When does my child get to bring home their artwork?

Your child will bring home their artwork twice a year.  The first 
time is right after Christmas and the 
second is at the end of the year.  I will keep some of their work 
to put it in the artshow.

What is my child learning in art this year?

This year we are studying Multiculturalism. Basically art from 
all around the world.  We are going to take a look at each 
continent and learn about the customs and traditions of the 
people and they type of artwork they created.  Then students will 
experience creating that artwork but putting their own 
personality into it and making it their own.  Some examples are 
students will study Native American art and they will make 
buffalo robes and pottery.  They will study Asian art and create 
Kimonos and Chinese lanterns. They will study the Aboriginees 
from Australia and creat dot painting.

How is my child graded?

Students in grades K-5th are graded by using E, S, N and U's. 
Grades 6th-8th are A, B, C and D.  I have broken the grades in to 
two halfs.  50% of their grade is based on their attitute and 
behavior.  The other 50% of their grade is 
based on their effort.
