Lesson Comments
The dialogue between the students continues to be of an inappropriate nature despite my repeated warnings that such inappropriate language and topics must not be discussed during my class and at school in general. They show disregard and disrespect for me as a teacher and an authority figure by continuing this practice. Perhaps, the Upper School Studio should disband if the students cannot conduct themselves as gentlemen. As a professional, I am very uncomfortable in this atmosphere.
Each student was given a color photograph with a clear grid of one-inch squares all over it and a sheet of drawing paper with a one-inch margin all around it. Each student had to draw a grid of 1.5-inch squares on his drawing paper. Then he will look at the photograph under the grid and transcribe what he sees in each square onto each square of his paper. This drawing technique was used during the Renaissance and helps to develop observation skills, the understanding of positive and negative space, and line and shape relationships in space.
