7th Grade Technology

In this quarter we have been researching and learning about the advantages and disadvantages of different social networks. With the research made in teams assigned, each student created a site. In teams they will create a radio station that will be done with GarageBand. So get ready to listen to an interesting program!

We will work on typing as another learning theme, so students can use less time when typing a project for any class. Remember to ask your child to cover their hands with a handkerchief and to focus on the accuracy and the speed will come along. The sites they will use to practice are on my site.

Good Luck!

7th Grade Visual Arts

We have started a new semester and 7th grade visual arts students have been learning drawing techniques. In this particular project students learned how all objects are made up of shapes and how easy it is to make these shapes 3D by shading.
We set up six different still life compositions in class and each table drew what they saw. They placed each object in its correct plane and drew exactly what they saw. Once the drawing was finished they shaded it either using warm or cool colors. The end results are amazing. Check them out !
