Tuesday-Friday Feb. 16-19

So...some of us slid into G-town today, and some of us were stranded. A few went in the ditches.
Thankfully...driving about 35-40 in some spots down Hwy. 4, I made it, safe and sound!

With shortened class periods it's hard to get much accomplished, but we will try.

Art II is doing the "20 Minute draw" today. They choose an object and draw/shade what they can in 20 minutes. Sometimes it's surprising to see what can be accomplished in this short amount of time!

Kollasch (TAG) came in and we were looking of trees in National Geographics to paste into his
dinosaur diorama. Eventually we'll get our claymation movie made, complete with sound effects!

Photography will continue working on slick ads and hopefully creative juices will be flowing!

Graphic Designers are working on program covers for various upcoming events using either Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator. They will also be exploring various art careers this week via a very well done HS Graphic Design Class website. I feel like I should be paying dues to use the site! There is SO much useful information there. She's not teaching anymore, but left her site for the rest of us!

The rest of the week we will be working on set and props for Music Man Jr. which will be presented by the Terril/Graettinger MS in late March (the 26th I believe). Having seen this musical and the movie numerous times, it's easy for me to envision and execute items needed to aide Mrs. Sexe in this endeavor. I LOVE musicals. Have been in a few myself. Imagine me as a Nun?! ha!

In the Elementary we will be doing a drawing of our Knight logo in the Kindergarten and 1st Grades--reminding students that you can create drawings using lines and shapes is necessary and needs to be done frequently.

So...good luck to our 2 wrestlers and to the Boys Basketball team as they enter State and District competitions. To our FFA folks as they compete and prepare for State and State offices. If you have ever visited our school you would see that we have creative, talented and great students here! Small schools RULE!
