Why The Arts?
(Click on link to play video)
Welcome to the new school year!
I am excited to have you as my art student. We will embark in a creative journey that will take us through all the continents while exploring different media, artistic styles and content. We will also experiment with various design elements and visual art principles.
First you will need some art supplies to use during class. Please come to school with:
· a set of 10 big multi-colored markers
· a set of 12 colored pencils
· a set of 12 crayons
· a pack of pencils to last the year
· a set of sharpeners to last the year
· a set of erasers to last the year
· a set of glue sticks to last the year
Furthermore remember that our art class rules are the same as your homeroom class. I'm counting on you to behave so that we may enjoy creating lots of fun art work!
Lastly, please be aware that grades will be awarded based on these criteria: following directions, effort, creativity, behavior, class readiness, assignment completion, comprehension assessments, homework, attendance and final artwork overall presentation.
I am looking forward to a great creative year! You may contact me at anytime by calling 305-945-1511 or emailing me at dorothywawa@dadeschools.net.
