Square 1 Art has been sent!Tuesday the 24th I mailed our big box of art away to square one. They have begun processing and catalogs will be in very soon. Catalogs will go home around November 6th!All students that had art go in the box will receive their personalized catalog and order form around November 6th! Notes will begin going home to remind you to be on the look out this upcoming week. If your child does not get a catalog it is because they missed the deadline to be included in the box. It DOES NOT mean they cannot participate. I have some extra paper and information about how to participate as an individual. However, I will not be sending anything in, it will be on the student and family. Other Art Room News!In other art room news, all classes are moving on to create more art!
And the Winners are....Every 9 weeks we have a clean up time competition where the fastest class in grades 1 through 5 compete against each other for a prize of their choosing. And the winners for the first 9 weeks, and their selected prizes if we have chosen, are....
Student art for the fundraiser is due back to me by October 16th (this coming Monday) to be included in this years fundraiser. All students who turn art in will receive a sheet of stickers along with their catalog. If students place an order they will get a lollipop. I have decided that everyone will get a lollipop when our orders come in in December because I know that not everyone will be able to buy something.
If a student does not turn in art, they will still get a lollipop in December but will not be receiving stickers or a catalog. They may go onto Square 1 Art's website and sign up to be an individual participant and submit their art that way but I cannot mail in late work. So far, most of the younger students (k-2) are participating as theirs was finished in class. Third has a few who still need to finish but I am going to try and get the art to them to take home this weekend. The big if right now are the older kids (4th and 5th) as they took theirs home and will need to remember to bring it in on their own. I strongly encourage parents to ask about their child's participation and see how they can help. Several students have been interested in the cost of items relative to other things. For example, the cost of a dog tag necklace is about 3 Starbucks drinks. I have also included as an incentive that Miss Nance may buy some keychains of student art as a memento of the students' hard work this year. Notes will be going home within the next couple of weeks to say thank you for participating and to look out for the catalogs. |
Welcome!To the Stevenson Elementary Art Room blog! I will endeavor to update at least once a week to let you know what's happening in our classroom. And maybe by the end of the year some of the students will be writing posts for you to read! Archives
