**Grading:**
Go To [|Pinnacle] I will do my best to up date grades on Mondays and Fridays each week.
 * If you see a blank after a project or assignment: That means I have not yet graded the assignment.
 * If you see a Z: that means I've graded the assignment and it's past due date and it has not yet been turned in or posted on Picasa.
 * If you see a 0: the assignment has not turned in. A zero has been recorded and I will no longer accept the project or assignment for a grade.
 * If you see a X: that means for various reasons your student has been exempt from the project, quiz, or assignment.
 * //Please note, I will not accept late work the last week of the quarter. Any work missing during the last few days of the quarter will be recorded as a zero.//

**Picasa.**
This is an online web album that students post their work when they are completed. They can post work from school or home at any time during the project duration. Please check out your students Picasa album. When the work is posted to Picasa it's considered turned in. We will use this as their portfolio and student can use this to add to their Senior Presentations in the Spring.

Sketch Book:
Are worth 60 % of a students grade in both classes. Work will include notes, artist information/worksheet, drawing practices, elements of art explorations, principles of design exploration, and printed work from work done in Photoshop, Illustrator, and Indesign. Students are always encouraged to work in their sketchbook regardless if there is an assignment due. More practice of drawing the better one gets.

Artist Information: This year I decided to take some of the work load off the student and present the information during class time. Student will go through a PowerPoint with me and afterwards work on a worksheet that covers the information covered in PowerPoint. Students must show me the completed worksheet with found images of the artist work to get credit. This work is to be kept in their sketchbook.
