7th+Grade+Art

Welcome to 7th grade art!!!

Students need to have a //**sketchbook, and a pink eraser**// in the art room. The sketchbooks should be able to be used again in 8th grade, so if you look for a spiral one, it will last longer. The students will have a cubby to store their supplies in, but they will need to share their cubby with a classmate, so please put their name on their items. Each student will make a portfolio for holding all completed work of art, the students will use their sketchbooks for daily drawing assignments, class notes, and thumb nail sketches for assignments.
