Friday, December 16th, 2016 | Artist Statements are due! Start Presentation Preparation

Artist statements are due today.  You have created something, big or small.  It is time to showcase your learning process.  Your artist statement helps fill in the gaps that your creation may not tell about your artistic intent.  This will be your second line of defense for communicating your creation.  You first line of defense and explanation is your Exhibition.  Today, you will be able to start developing the presentation portion of your exhibition.

Guiding Questions

• Who am I as an artist? 
• Who am I as an exhibitor?
• How do artists communicate vision and intent?

DO NOW

• Turn in your Artist Statement to Addie in the IDEAS Block ELA Google Classroom
• If you are not ready to do this, then the expectation is that your artist statement is turned in by the end of the class period today.

DO NEXT

• Set up your studio time journal based on your needs for today.  If your artist statement is not complete, set a goal surrounding this.
• If you are ready, go to the presentation page on the Humanities Webpage. The outline for an exhibition is there.

STUDIO TIME

Ticket out | Complete your Artist Statement and submit it to Addie.

Next week will be a week of presentation workshopping and preparation.  Monday and Tuesday are the core workshops and studio time to prepare your presentation.  Wednesday and Thursday will be focused around metacognition during exhibitions. We will also have a Town Hall on Thursday where Molly will cover many of the expectations and needs for Exhibitions of Learning.  When we return from Winter Break, we will be in full practice Exhibition mode.  Be ready to exhibit your learning at any time when we come back.  The schedule will come out before you return.
