The journals will be checked once a quarter for completion, experimentation, observation, and time on task. They are worth 5 points each. One journal is "assigned" per week and may be completed at any time by the due date. Each journal should take about 20-30 minutes to complete. These DO NOT need to be completed drawings- but they can be :). They may be a compilation of sketches (drawn over the allotted time frame). Use ANY medium to complete these journals.
*Complete each journal on the "designated journal page" in the sketchbook. Label and date each drawing.
*You can do these in any order. ALL are due by the date listed.
