Always try your best!

Be willing to try new things. It is okay to make a mistake or learn along the way. The process of creating art is just as important as the product. Having a growth mindset will help you enjoy the studio and grow as an artist. No "I cant's"! Instead, say, "I will try my best".

Respect the Artwork!

We are all learning and growing in the studio space. Allow yourself and others to figure things out! Use positive interactions instead of putting people, ideas, and skills down. Don't touch someone else's work with intention to ruin it. 

Treat the Supplies with Care!

We share the studio space with others and depend on the materials to help us make art. If we do not clean materials properly, they may not function to their best ability. This leads to frustration. Please pick up after yourself and follow instructions for caring for materials. 

"In Class" Projects (Art 6, Intro, Art 2)

• worth 20 (+3 Points) points based on a rubric. The +3 points are for submitting clear/ cropped photos of work to GC. 

• graded with the student for verbal feedback.

• effort, attitude and personal growth play a big part in your grade. 

• LATE WORK: *** If a student falls behind or is absent, grades may be entered into "Q" as a zero (to remind the student to complete the project at lunch, before school, or at home (if possible)). Once projects are returned and graded, they may earn up to full credit for this assignment.

"In Class" Projects (Animation and New Media Art)

• 20-100 Points. All projects have the points listed in Google Classroom with EACH ASSIGNMENT. 

• If a student does not receive full points for an assignment, check GOOGLE CLASSROOM for notes/comments and to review the grading expectations. *Talk with the teacher if you have questions regarding a grade. 

• effort, attitude and personal growth play a big part in your grade. 

• FOLLOW directions!

• LATE WORK Policy***: SOME projects will have a HARD DEADLINE (as would mimic real world dealines and time constraints). This deadline will be noted in the google classroom assignment. Late work deductions will be noted in GC and may vary from assignment to assignment. *** If there is a sickness, vacation, etc. PLEASE email your teacher to discuss options for make up work. 

Students are assumed SATISFACTORY when they arrive in class. They may remain SATISFACTORY or earn an OUTSTANDING. Students who do not comply with the studio expectations may also earn a "NEEDS IMPROVEMENT" OR UNSATISFACTORY mark. 

Good works habits and citizenship include: 

• • Arrives on time to class, Displays a positive attitude, respectful of other students and adults (including voice volume is appropriate for "inside the classroom") , cooperates with other students and adults.

  • Turns in assignments, seeks help when needed, participates in class, brings materials, stays on task.

Work Habits:

• "Participation" is part of the letter grade and work habits grade. As a growing artist, it is important to participate (remain on task, use the materials, and not distract others from working).
