Your grade:

ACT words
ACT words are due each week. Your grade will be a zero if you do not turn the ACT words in when they are due. You cannot makeup ACT words unless you have an excused absence.

If you are in the Art, Design and Communications (ADC) academy, you will submit your ACT word assignment through Edmodo, using your laptop. All ADC academy students must submit this assignment on line, using Edmodo. If you are in the ADC academy and you do not submit through Edmodo, your grade will be a zero.

If you are not in the ADC academy, you may submit this assignment on paper. You are encouraged to submit the assignment online as well. You could work with someone who has a laptop, or you could use another computer to submit the ACT words assignment through Edmodo.

Late work, if it is accepted, will be given a grade of 75% of what the original score would have been. If your grade would have been 100 if you turned it in on time, your late grade will be 75.


Electronic devices
Cell phones, portable music players, headphones, earbuds, and other electronic devices are not permitted.
The only exception is your school-issued laptop & ear buds, I believe. That means if you are using your school-issued laptop and ear buds for assigned work, this is permitted....at this point in time. This could change if my understanding is incorrect.


Please bring a pencil to class. I cannot "loan" pencils. I'm just about out. You can also donate pencils.


Today:

1. ACT Words

2. Texture rubbings plus watercolor if you have not done them.

3. Magazine photos and letters to be used for texture

Your grade_update:

Timesheets
For now, we are no longer keeping timesheets. We may continue Timesheets later. Instead of Timesheets, I will give you a daily employability skills grade based on what you do in class. Here is a link to how that grade is determined.

ACT words
We will still do ACT words at the beginning of class, but there are changes.

If you are in the Art, Design and Communications (ADC) academy, you will submit your ACT word assignment through Edmodo, using your laptop. All ADC academy students must submit this assignment on line, using Edmodo. If you are in the ADC academy and you do not submit through Edmodo, your grade will be a zero.

Electronic devices
Cell phones, portable music players, headphones, earbuds, and other electronic devices are not permitted. This is a school rule.

If I see one of those items, I will ask you to give it to me.

If you give it to me, I will give it back to you at the end of class.

If you choose not to give it to me, or contiunue to break this rule, I will write a referral.

The only exception is your school-issued laptop & ear buds, I believe. That means if you are using your school-issued laptop and ear buds for assigned work, this is permitted....at this point in time. This could change if my understanding is incorrect.

Regarding laptops, there are two things you should be doing in this class.
One is working on your assignments. The other is working in your sketchbook.

If you are using your laptop, you should be using it for one of those things. If you are not, you should put away your laptop.
