Week 6 – 2/3 of the way into First Quarter! We are doing GREAT THINGS!

Before I begin… HERE is a link to the new STANDARDS BASED RUBRICS that the 7th graders REBUILT. The original was fine and written lovely for a teacher – NOW the kids had a hand in it and the standards are things they can check off and see that they have met the baseline for the standards. I would LOVE to hear your feedback! I am SO PROUD of the kids. The 8th graders did the same for their rubrics… this is just one of the examples.

EXPECTATIONS in the studio… Here are ours.

Also – and we will be going through these in studio – Thank you the art of education university. HERE are the POSTERS.
