Remember to check my white board for due dates and info on what were working on in class.

Art is Thinking

One common misconception that art class is not a "real" class. In reality art class is one of the most important classes your child takes. They have to be able to analyze, evaluate, and create. These are all higher level thinking skills. One way we check for understanding is with a "Critique Sheet." Students have to answer questions and justify their opinion using complete sentences. Here is a great sample of a child demonstrating their knowledge.  

Czaplicki & Kluender Open Studio Time

On Mondays, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday Ms. Kleunder and Czaplicki hold "Open Studio" time during Flex. This gives students an opportunity to come and finish incomplete work, catch up if they're behind, or make sure that they are going ABOVE and BEYOND to get that "A!"

It also gives them a time to get some more individual attention if they are having trouble!
