Continued Work in Progress...week of October 20

Grade 6-Frogs on Parade....It is very exciting seeing completed frogs finding their home on the lilly pads. The show is going to be AWESOME!!! Make plans to attend the exhibit and auction on November 7. I am working on how to do an exhibit at Hickory Hills before the frogs go up for auction. Frogs shown are "Sick Froggy", "Winter Wonderland", "Pink Froggies", "Tiger", "Chocolate Dipped Frog Berry", "Stained Glass", and "There's no place like my lilly pad"(Dorothy...OZ).
Students have turned in Art binders/folders for the 1st quarter. We have started a study of abstract tribal portraits to use for our printmaking project. Students are working on a large gold worksheet. This includes a few definitions, recording samples of eyes, noses, mouths, and so forth. Students are now trying to put parts together to make make interesting tribal faces. This worksheet will be collected for points next week.
Frogs will be graded with the tally sheet shown in class. This score will be included in 1st quarter grades.
