ART

Hello parents and students,

Welcome! I am Ms. Iniguez and I will be the art teacher at Somerset Academy Miramar this school year.

Classroom Rules

1. Stay in your seat.

2. Listen to instructions and follow directions.

3. Stay on task and give your best effort.

4. Treat everyone with respect.

5. Always use art materials safely and correctly.

6. Help clean up at the end of the lesson.

Elementary School Grade Students

Throughout the course of the year students in my art class will learn about the elements of art and principles of design. They will be able to recognize these in works of art as well as use the art elements and design principles to create their own artworks.

Middle School Grade Students

Throughout the school year students in my art class will be exposed to art from many different parts of the world and time periods. Students will experience, study and create art influenced from various periods of art. They will be expected to maintain a sketchbook with art vocabulary and personal works of art.  Students will be expected to bring their sketchbook to class everyday, if they do not they will lose points.

Students will be graded on classwork, quizzes, and sketchbooks. Classwork will be graded based on the following criteria: craftsmanship, creativity/ technique, effort and participation/attitude.  

I hope to make this a fun and exciting school year for my students. Thank you for taking an interest in your child's education.

Sincerely,

Ms. Iniguez
