THE LINE!!

We began the school year by creating covers for our portfolios. Now that our schedule of 3 day school weeks is over, we are starting our first unit. Students in all grades will begin working on comics. We will start by making a flip book in class, showing action and movement and then begin work on facial features, focusing on expression. We will move on to figure drawing and movement, action, landscape and setting mood, dialogue and finally costume. In anticipation of the book fair next month, students will create artwork in keeping with the theme of "Everyday Heroes." Artists will create their own action hero and ultimately, a comic. I will be looking for a volunteer to help with layout for the comic book our school will be making, at the end of the unit.

Thanks!
