BRACE YOURSELF • CLASS RULES ARE COMING
Aim: What should the rules of the Art Room be? Do Now: Create 2 classroom rules that you think would be important for an art room.
Be Prepared Everyday! ONE DOES NOT SIMPLY SHOW UP WITHOUT A PENCIL
Participate in class and put in your best effort! DOES SO WELL IN ART CLASS TEACHER CALLS HOME AND SAYS I’M AWESOME
NO YOU CAN’T KEEP YOUR BAGS AND BOOKS ON THE TABLE. • Keep books and bags off the desk, and out of the aisle on the floor.
Cell phone policy: • You must sign the technology agreement to use your phone only for artistic purposes. • If your phone is out, or being used for a non-art purpose it will be taken away. • Your parents will get a phone call home. • Repeat cell phone offenders will find their phone in the main office at the end of the day where your parents will have to pick it up.
MUSIC Policy • You are not allowed to play music from your phone or other device during class. • Listening to music from your personal device with headphones may be allowed while working in an open studio setting- but this is a class earned privilege. • No headphones during demos, lessons, class discussions or critiques. Van Gotye
Leave food/drinks in the front of the room. Please don’t eat near artwork.
Be attentive and respectful! Oh, you’d like respect? Please, continue being disrespectful.
Be open to meeting new people and working with others in class. • Get to know your classmates! It’s a great way to show your respect for others.
Respect your supplies and the art room’s supplies! • Don’t take/touch something without asking permission! Don’t invade others personal spaces. • Use all supplies properly, clean supplies, and put supplies back where you find them!
WANT AN EASY TIP FOR STAYING OUT OF DETENTION? USE MATURE AND APPROPRIATE BEHAVIOR IN CLASS
Don’t write on school property. If you feel like drawing put it on paper. NOT SURE IF TAKING NOTES IN BINDER OR DOODLING ON THE DESK THE WHOLE TIME
If you want to leave on time, help clean up the room...even if it wasn’t your mess. IT’S 5 MINUTES UNTIL END OF CLASS CLEAN UP ALL THE MESS!
WANNA BE DISTRACTING IN CLASS? KEEP GETTING OUT OF YOUR SEAT • Stay in your seat unless told otherwise! Walking around can be dangerous and distracting!
WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU ALREADY THREW IT OUT? • Don’t EVER throw away an artwork without Ms. Livoti’s approval!
IF MY EXPERIENCE IN THIS CLASS IS DEPENDENT UPON MY ATTITUDE • The experience you have in this room is dependent upon your attitude. THEN IF I HAVE A SUPER AMAZING ATTITUDE, CLASS WILL BE SUPER AMAZING?
Commit to your art training! Make art part of your day, every day and stick to it! Walking through the door of the art room is your first step. • Don’t get scared or worried about making art, or what it will look like. • Make artwork for the practice! Enjoy the practice, not the result. • Stay calm and work hard at each project! Don’t let yourself get frustrated. • Every day will be different, do what you can each day • Give your teacher and classmates your personal best so they may achieve theirs. Motivate each other to do better! • Don’t cheat at art by letting someone do something for you. You have to develop your own skill and style!
