Our Artroom Rules

To insure that the MLMS artroom is a safe and enjoyable environment for all, the following rules must be followed:
Be respectful.
Clean up.
Use materials/equipment responsibly.
Stay in your assigned seat during art production time
Try.

WE follow the same rules that are in the MLMS Student Handbook.
Grading

MLMS art students are graded on how well they achieve the learning objectives for each assignment or project. They are also graded on following directions, craftsmanship, originality and completion of preliminary work and self- assessment.

All assignments and assessments are evaluated using the standard rubric:
4 - exemplary, 3 - accomplished, 2 - developing, 1 - beginning

Expectations are for all students to reach a level of 3 or greater on all work. Whenever less than a 3 is indicated the work may be redone to show the student has increased their level of understanding. 10 points per day will be deducted from all late work. Professional artists have to be on time!

Life Skills

Students will receive scores using the 1-4 ratings as described above in the following areas:
• Participation
• Work ethic
• Collaborative skills
• Courtesy/Respect

You will be expected to respect the Artroom and all supplies, and clean up art materials. I hope no one will want to harm or destroy expensive art materials. There is no longer a 6th grade art program because of budget cuts.

Our materials are expensive and special, and will enable you to have success with art. If anyone is found to be harming material, this is vandalism, and I will refer you to Detective Argyle. This is a serious thing to do. Please take care of our room and supplies!


C o n s e q u e n c e s
Occassionaly a few students choose to ignore the art rules and behave poorly. In these cases, (depending on severity and frequency of poor behavior) the consequences for the student may be as follows:
Verbal warning
Conference with the teacher
Seat change
Temporary removal from artroom
Alternate assignment
Contact parent(s)
Behavior contract
Office referral
Permanent removal from class


Artroom procedures


When you arrive, put your backpack in the front of the room. Pick it up again after dismissal.

At the end of each class period, a cleanup job will be assigned. Be sure to do it, it's part of your grade. All table groups must be washed each day before leaving, and chairs tucked in. Each class can then arrive to a cheerful and clean artroom.

About your teacher, Mrs. Rouse

I have loved art since I was very young, and I have worked as an artist for many years.
After I graduated from college, I became a stained glass artist.



Then I became a graphic artist! That is an artist that produces artwork such as logos, illustration, and poster design -



I like to teach summer school. I have even taught art in a barn at The American West Heritage Center!



My favorite job ever, is teacher here at Mount Logan Middle School!



I look forward to a successful trimester with each of you in Printmaking!
