The 3rd Trimester Art Begins for 6th Grade





























This is the first week of the 3rd trimester at Lakeview Junior High for the 6th grade students. We have begun our Drawing unit and introduction to our Elements of Art unit, as well.







Students have created an imaginary drawing using one or more of the Elements of Art in their work such as line, shape, color, value, texture, and space. In addition,each student wrote a description of their artistic theme and discussed their use of an element of art in their work.







Also, this week we started our cartooning unit which is explored throughout the trimester since this enhances drawing skills.














Currently, parents,students and the community-at-large can view examples of recent 8th grade artwork from the 2nd trimester on my blog,as well as on the Center Cass School District 66 website by looking at the Lakeview link. www.ccsd66.org/lakeview














Some recent 8th grade artwork can be found on this blog.
