Sorry About Being MIA...

My year got insane.  This past spring was my thesis project for my Master's and everything else in my life slid to the sidelines.  I apologize.  Good news is, my Master's Degree is complete and I never have to go through that again!  I have been taking tons of pictures though from the last post straight up until the end of the school year and as soon as I find the damned cord to connect my camera to my laptop I'll begin updating with posts of the kids' work.  In the meantime, I'll leave you with a few teacher examples I had saved to the laptop a while back.

Oil Crayon Value Scale - I have the kids practice this before working on forms.

And the Forms they move onto once they've got the Value Scale Down!

For the project above I have the kids cut a 12 x 18 piece of black paper in half  - one half becomes the practice page and the other is for the final project.  It generally takes about 2 classes, maybe three if you have kids who work very slowly and carefully.

Now, I'm off to find that damned cord...
