PER 6- Ceramics

Students should fill-out self-evaluation forms for their coil pots which they build last week (I will run these off and have them on the island by their pots). When their finished, have them place them in the yellow box on the island. 
Once finished with their self-evals, students should finish glazing their figures. They may also repair or re-build coil post which they are disappointed with or work on the potter's wheels. Please be sure to have them clean up beginning at 1:40pm. Extra clay needs to go back in the barrel. The cover needs to be placed tightly on the barrel to keep clay from drying out. Anyone who works on the wheels need to make sure they are cleaned up. Tools should be wiped off and returned to their carriers on the island. Glaze jars and bottles should be closed and returned to their boxes. Glaze brushes should be rinsed out and returned (handle-side down) to their coffee can on the island. 

PER 7- 8th Grade Art

Students should continue working on their Edward Hopper city-scape paintings. Directions are on pages 38-39 in their Art textbooks. Please be sure to have them clean up beginning at 2:25pm. Paintings should go in the drying cabinet, palates should go on the East window sill, and brushes need to be cleaned and placed handle-side down into jars with like-sized brushes.

PER 8- Yearbook

YRBK I- Kary & Shelby should work on their Module 9 Study Guides which will be due tomorrow (Wed 2/13) when they take the Module Quiz.

YRBK II&III- Most of the Staff should be working on layouts on yearbookavenue.jostens.com. Pages that most need to be worked on are 26, 27, 30, & 31. Students may use class as a studyhall, so long as they read or do work for other classes- but they should NOT be texting, gaming, or social-networking.

YRBK III&IV (Editors) Taylor, Ashley, & Robert- Should be working on the Senior pages (they can also help with pp 26/27, 30/31) they may help staffers with any problems they may have on their pages.

DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY!

Holy Guacamole! You weren't kidding when you complained about how difficult that quiz was. I'm not sure i should bother entering the scores under 25%. I am thinking (don't count on it, I'm just thinking at this point) about spending some more time reviewing with you and giving you a paper re-test.

Here is the link for the test on the second half of Chapter 1 (pages 20-27)

Remember, the emphasis is on Shutter Speed & Aperture, so study over what each does and how to get them to work together.

http://www.boyer-valley.k12.ia.us/pages/photoch1b.htm

Remember to include your name and email address, but an ID # is not necessary. If you are disappointed with your results (it is a toughie) you may study more and re-take it once, but you may not just keep taking it until you get the results you want (yes, I'll know  Kelsi uh, er, I mean whoever might be thinking of trying that). ALSO- very FUNNY, whoever entered their name as "Sister Wendy!"

These are the pages on the wiki that we are concentrating right now:

http://digphoto.wikispaces.com/01+Camera

http://digphoto.wikispaces.com/01+Action+and+Sports

In case you've missed anything and need to get caught up, by now you should have...

• Watched the video and filled out the study guide from http://digphoto.wikispaces.com/00+Video%3B+Photography+Connects+Us+
• Taken notes from the slide show and taken the online quiz on the history of photography on http://digphoto.wikispaces.com/00+History+of+Photography
• Read & studied pp.1-19 in Chapter 1 and taken the paper-quiz over it  look for "Photo Chapt. 1A.pdf" on the bottom of http://digphoto.wikispaces.com/01+Camera
• Shot a self-portrait and uploaded it to flickr AND added it to our class group-pool (was due Fri 1/18)
• Shoot some action (and/or) sports pictures and add them to the pool by Monday, Jan 18

REMINDER: You can and probably should go ahead and start working on shooting assignments for your portfolio already, however, if you upload them to your flickr photostream already, please wait to add them to our class pool until we're covering that specific assignment, don't add everything you upload to the pool as soon as you upload it. Thanks.

Mallory Sub Lessons Mon Jan 21

So last Friday, I took my daughter to the doctor, but today I really need to. I feel like an elephant is sitting on my chest. Thank you for taking my classes for me today.

1. & 2. CIVICS- Have students read/complete the attached article about when Martin Luther King Jr. received the Nobel Peace Prize and turn in by end of the class period. 

3. Photography- Students should complete the attached Self-Critique form on their recent self-portrait assignment. Since only 4 students have done so already, most students should use the time to download pictures from their cameras and upload them to flickr, add their assigned pictures to the class group "pool." A few people may need to use the time to register for flickr. Students should read pp. 20-27 and be prepared for a quiz over it on Thursday. 

4. Planning  Period- Please have my teaching assistant, Emily Anderson score the Ceramics and Yearbook quizzes. Her name is on a post-it note on them on the island. Have her put them in the yellow box when she's finished.

5. 7th Grade Art- Have students complete the attached 2-page worksheet on complementary colors- they may use whatever media they'd prefer; marker, colored pencil, crayon, or oil pastel. Please be sure to have them put whatever they use away and clean up by the end of the period. When they finish, (make sure they have their names on them) have them turn them in to the yellow box on the island counter.

6. Ceramics- Have students use the "pinch method" to create birds and fish. Each student should create at least one of each, but may make as many as 4 or 5 if they want to. Sculptures should not be any bigger than their hand. Remind them that anything thicker than your thumb must be hollow (just like the spheres from the first week). They should be sure to cover them with plastic bags when they're done. Tomorrow we will score/critique last week's pots.

Please be sure they clean-up no later than 1:40pm and please make sure that the lit is put back on the barrel tightly. Friday afternoon when I came in for the basketball game, there were tools and clay on the table and the lid was on the floor- the clay will dry out and be ruined if it is not covered. Please don't let them play cards or play on their phones or ipods. Thank you.

7. 8th Grade Art- Have students take the attached quiz on the elements and principles of design. Students MAY use their notes, students may NOT use their books, students may NOT talk. Please collect the quizzes in the yellow box when they are finished. Students should read the directions on pages 12-13 in their books for the assignment which they will begin tomorrow.

8. Yearbook- 

• Kari & Shelby- Read "MODULE 1: The Yearbook" (pp.7-11)- test Friday, I will have related activities for them to complete tomorrow or Wednesday.
• YBII- (Most of the class) Work on their pages, they can design layouts even before they have pictures for them. They receive a weekly "work" grade for their progress.
  
• YBIII&IV- (Ashley, Taylor, Robert, & Kameren) Work on Senior Section or help other students with their pages.

Thank you for subbing for me today, I hope you have a good one.
