      • Watch this video: https://youtu.be/JWqgEPj7vHI
      • Finish Planning and designing
      • We'll watch the Great Pottery Throwdown episode again but this time pay attention to when they do what kind of sculpting (especially the details) and how/when they assemble the pieces/sections.
      • Make Moquet/template pieces to experiment with building forms for your building- assemble with tape so it's easy to take apart and use as templates for your project slabs.
      • Note: Will have 2 weeks (Starting next week) to build project- can start building when ready though.

Ceramics IPA (B4)- 
  • Start Pinch Pot Unit - Complete the Advanced instructions

  • What should be done before/by end of the week:
    • Remember ALL of class time is to be utilized for sculpting. If you complete something early be ready to either embellish it more, add another component/page etc. If falling behind may need to simplify design some to complete on time. 
AP Art History
  • Unit 2.3 outline Complete. We'll review for quiz on Thursday (the tldr- version)
  • Progress Check Link:

  • Quiz for 2.3 will be on Monday Nov. 8th.
  • Note: be ready to start moving faster- to stay on track and not overwhelm yourself- ALWAYS plan on having a MINIMUM of 4 art cards completed each class period. If we don't get them done in class, plan on completing them as homework. Yes, it's fine to work ahead! everything is linked on the AP Art History Go and Smart History sites, if I haven't gotten my stuff ready on my end yet.
