Art

8/24

Good morning Artists! I sent home a bag of Art supplies for you, which you should have gotten by today. Please turn in last week's Art assignment this week. For today's assignment, I would like you to create a sketchbook cover. Use the large folded paper that I sent home for you. Lay the paper in front of you so that it opens like a book (the fold should be on the Left side). This will be the front cover of your sketchbook. Books usually have 3 things on their covers: a title, an illustration or drawing, and the author's name, and the illustrator's name. The author is the person who wrote the book, and the illustrator is the person who did the artwork. Sometimes the same person writes the book and does the artwork, so there is only one name on it. INSTRUCTIONS: Put a title at the top of the paper- it can be just Sketchbook, Art, My Art Book or anything you want. Please write your name on the cover. You will be the author/illustrator. Draw a picture (illustration) on the cover. Color it in using whatever materials you want. Send it in with your other work and I will add some pages to turn it into your Sketchbook. Then, I will send it home for you to keep. We will use this to draw in sometimes for class. Have fun!!!

Good Morning Students! Today is your first day of Art class, and I am your Art teacher Mrs. Martin! We will be having a lot of fun in Art class this year, and you will need some supplies. This week, I will send home an Art Kit for you to use for Art Class. It will have crayons, markers, a paint set, scissors, pencils, and glue. I will also send home some paper for you. Sometimes Art is messy, so you will need a paint shirt or an apron.

You will need to find a special place to keep your Art supplies and do your Art lessons. This will be your "Art Studio". It might be just a spot at the kitchen table, at a desk, or wherever your parents want you to do your work, but it can still be special!

Today, I would like you to draw a picture of yourself in your Art studio creating Art. Use a pencil to draw and color it in if you can. Please write your first name in the lower right corner of your paper. Send it in to Mrs. Carroll, with your other school work, and she will give it to me. Have fun!
