Readings for Tuesday, September 30

Everyone, 

Please read and be prepared to discuss pg. 204 "Failing Our Kids: What's wrong with the testing craze", and pg. 219 "Promoting Students to do Quality work" for class next Tuesday. We will be done with the text and start on the Guerilla Girls after this. 

Readings Thursday, September 11

Hello All,

We will discuss the articles in Rethinking Our Classrooms Vol. 2 that cover the Civil Rights Movement, pages 116-133.
We will also begin learning about acrylic paint and techniques. Please look at Pinterest, at paintings you saw at art trail, or google paintings to get some inspirations.

Readings and Assignments for Monday, September 9

Hello Everyone,

The first of class will be when everyone can present their art event or turn in their papers. We will also share our "I Am From Poems" and unsung heroes.

For the reading I have decided we will only look at one article, Girls, Worms, and Body Image on page 107. This will create a change for our next reading, and I will announce that in class on Tuesday.

Remember First Friday Art Trail is tomorrow night. Check out the website at ffat.org.
