June 2020 Evening with the Arts video

Email Mrs. Aubin

 Students will not be provided an "art shirt" (smock) or apron this year. 

I WOULD SUGGEST STUDENTS WEARING CLOTHES THAT ARE EASILY WASHABLE WHEN THEY ARE SCHEDULED TO HAVE ART. WE WILL BE PRIMARILY USING PENCILS, COLORED PENCILS AND MARKERS WITH THE OCCASIONAL USE OF TEMPERA PAINT AND WATERCOLORS. 

Art Targets for 2020-2021

I can be an artist every day, even when I'm not in art class.

I can find, access and use materials responsibly to make art.


Each class has art this year for a month at a time.
During their month of art, students should access their Google Classroom(3-8) or Class Dojo (K-2) to submit assignments.
​
Each student will create a sketchbook during their first week in art class that will house all of their work for the year. This sketchbook will need to be cared for and kept safe throughout the year. 


October Classes
Second Grade
Eighth Grade

​September Classes
Kindergarten
Fifth Grade
Seventh Grade


K- 2

Please find your weekly assignments in the Portfolio section of Class Dojo. 
Class Dojo

3-8

Your assignments are in your Google Classrooms and may take several weeks to complete.
It is expected that you will upload photos of your completed work into either Classroom or Artsonia. We will learn about this process during your art session.
​You will always have a project to do then some questions to answer to respond either to your own work or another artist's work. 
Artsonia
Artsonia Classroom Mode
​

PARENTS – Our school is offering a way for students to submit their artwork to their Artsonia portfolio from home. Artsonia now communicates with Google Classroom. We will practice uploading work to Google Classroom and see how it appears in Artsonia. 

Your child can use iPads or similar devices (or even a browser) to photograph their own artwork, make edits and enter artist statements - all on their own! The artwork will be reviewed by the art teacher prior to being published.

Download the Artsonia 6.0 app in the Apple or Android app store, then scan the Access Code below (or manually type in the code). You can also go to www.artsonia.com/class on a browser if you don't have a compatible device.


Access Code: MZKR-DKCR

You can view a short tutorial video by going to www.artsonia.com/videos/student-app
If you have any questions, please contact Artsonia at 800-869-9974 or info@artsonia.com
 

We will practice taking pictures of finished artwork and uploading it to Google Classroom as well as Artsonia. Artsonia is the online portfolio platform we have used for many years.
​
Only new students and Kindergarten students will need to sign up for Artsonia at the start of the year.
Once a student's account is created, it stays with them for their time at Alburgh. Artsonia has been updating their site and is now able to communicate with Google Classroom. We will explore this feature together and become more comfortable using both platforms this year.

Extra Art Activities

There is a list of drawing prompts to choose from if you simply want to work on your drawing skills.
