Welcome to 8th grade art! My name is Mrs. Cirjakovic and I will be your child's art teacher for the next 12 weeks. This trimester will be filled with several projects that will explore you child's creativity, teach them problem solving skills, and broaden their knowledge of art history. We will begin by designing personalized art portfolios to safely store our works of art. Then we will move on to our self-portrait unit. Self-portraits by famous artists will be viewed and discussed before we embark on this exciting (yet challenging) project. Various styles will be explored so that each student is inspired to design a unique and one of a kind product.
