1.) Each art project will receive
points equal to a letter grade. The grade will
be
determined by effort (time
on task, coming to class prepared), quality of work
(design, technique,
problem solving), following guidelines (written and verbal),
and craftsmanship
(presentation, execution of media).
| A+ 100 | B+ 87.0 | C+ 77.0 | D+ 67.0 |
| A 93.0 | B 83.0 | C 73.0 | D 63.0 |
| A- 90.0 | B- 80.0 | C- 70.0 | D- 60.0 |
2.) All assignments will have
due dates and must be given to the teacher on that day.
Artwork becomes
homework if you think that you cannot meet the due date. The student
is
responsible for knowing the due date. No late work is accepted unless there
is an
excused reason. Any problems must be discussed with the teacher prior
to the due date.
3.) Studio projects completed
in class (major projects) are worth 75% of your grade.
Homework, quizzes,
tests, art critiques, sketchbook assignments and pre-studio activities
are minor projects and are worth 25% of your grade.
4.) The final grade for the semester
is computed in the following manner:
40% (1st nine weeks) + 40% (2nd nine
weeks) + 20% final exam.
5.) Students must earn a final
grade of a "C-" or better in order to enroll
in a future art course at
Saline High School.
6.) Any artwork turned in to a teacher without a name will have a lowered grade.
7.) INAPPROPRIATE SUBJECT MATTER
USED IN ARTWORK WILL
RECEIVE A ZERO AND DISCIPLINARY ACTION WILL BE TAKEN.
