As we slide out of November, it's important to remember that no matter what, we are a Community. It's in the name of our school, for crying out loud! I have two favorite holidays: Day of the Dead and Thanksgiving. I am thankful for my students who push themselves to be creative, especially when it is difficult!

| Kimora's Contour Line Drawing |
5th Grade Sculptors
Scholars have been learning about Alexander Calder and his life and contributions to 3D artwork. He invented the mobile! Tuskegee students are transforming their self portrait drawings into 3-dimensional creations! Here are some photos from the past project. They will be returned to scholars shortly, but I'd like to brag one last time...

The self-portrait portion of the currency project was just completed and Hampton Rocked it! The second quarter will have more homework assignments but until then, enjoy some amazing artwork from my students.

7th Grade Researchers and Clay Recyclers
Howard students are DEEP in it! The research paper criteria can be viewed in previous posts (check the archive on the left) and we have begun doing the physical work of recycling clay using plaster bats and slip (ask your scholar what that is..they know!). Part 3 of the research project is due TUESDAY MORNING in class. All sections should be typed in Times New Roman font, size 12. Questions? Email Ms. Hillman:

8th Grade Batik Artists

| Test Page three - clearer! |
Because of the Fall Harvest Festival, we will not be able to have Art Class on Monday, however, I will give students a chance to make up the LAST section of last Wednesday's test. The pages (the brain sections AND the mandala) will be returned to scholars during the day on Monday and you can check
HERE to color in the parts of the brain. (Sorry for the poor quality given for the test!)
