areas such as drawing, painting, printmaking, graphic design, and sculpture.

thinking, in comparison to Art I and Art II students.

Pencil – Charcoal – Watercolor – Acrylic – Pastel – Pen and Ink – Perspective – Sculpture – Marker –

Collage – Colored Pencil

GOALS OF VISUAL ART EDUCATION

Art in school is both a body of knowledge and a series of activities. Fundamentally, learning in art hasfour major components. The goal of art education is the development in these areas:

by making art (art production);

by responding to and making judgments about the properties and qualities that exist in visual

forms (art criticism); by acquiring knowledge about the contributions artist and art make to culture and society (art

history);

by understanding the nature, meaning, and value of art (aesthetics).

GRADING

100-93 = A

92-86 = B85-77 = C76-70 = D

69 and below = F

Each student’s artwork is graded on an

individual basis. No cross-class comparisonswill be made. I grade on my expectations of the

student and his/her growth as an individual.

Each project will be worth 50 points. Projects

are graded with the following criteria in mind:artisanship, creative process, expression, andstructure. Students will self-assess their work

and, I will consider their own grade when Igrade each piece. Project grades will bedetermined by the choices they’ve made in

producing successful designs, based on theirimplementation of the understood elements and

principles of art.
