Homework Offered
Assessments Offered
This is not a course for written grades, but I do give feedback when asked by the students in class. I stay positive while also offering constructive advice on how they could take their project to the next level. In every lesson, I teach and encourage every artist to make the drawing their very own. So I encourage them to add some extras, draw the warrior cat in their own style, and let them know their cat does not have to look like mine! My feedback is only ever positive and encouraging! Students will leave my class feeling empowered, and encouraged and I am sure they will be eager to draw more warrior cats! 

Learners will interact with each other and the teacher through the classroom page via chat messaging, discussions about the lesson, posting a photo of their artwork, answering the key question for the lesson that week, and student collaborative artboard.  I will provide encouragement and positive feedback on their artwork and guide the students in classroom discussion topics. The warrior cat drawing deadlines will be the following week- the day before the next cat is uploaded to the classroom wall.
Grades Offered

The Nearpod platform will be utilized for extra student interaction in addition to the classroom page.  A link along with an access code will be provided in the Outschool classroom related to each week's flex lesson.  The access code I provide will take them directly to the lesson.  You do not need to have a Nearpod account.

Some websites will be used as a knowledge base in addition to my drawing instruction.  These websites will be just one part of the interactive material accessed thru Nearpod:
~ "Pet Circle” Youtube channel:  How and Why Cats Purr.
~ "Surprised” Youtube channel:  Most unusual cat breeds in the world.
~ "Animal Wised” Youtube channel:  Fun facts about cat paws.
~ "Kitten Lady” Youtube channel:  How to set up your space to foster kittens.
