7th grade: classes will complete the line study of their self portraits and begin a birdhouse project. Mrs. Betty Bobbitt Byrne is involved in a fundraiser for the Sunshine Center and has asked the Middle School art students to participate !! We are going to paint cedar blue bird houses to be given as gifts to the families hosting an event in their home. What a great opportunity for our students to share their talent with others !!
Art has lots of freedom and with that freedom comes responsibility ! We are going to begin a new point system to earn some rewards for good behavior. I hope this will encourage students to work hard, listen, pay attention, and treat each other with respect. I am looking forward to talking with the students tomorrow about possible rewards. One of the 7th grade classes got to start us off with the following ideas: bring a snack/drink to class, "freedom Friday" (i.e. sit where ever they want in class), movie day Friday (if every one in the class receives checks for the entire week), "paint (or draw) what ever you want Friday".
I am blessed to have your children each day and hope I can encourage them to be their very best!
