Sketchbook Students will keep a sketchbook in class. Every week, students will complete one free choice drawing using techniques and skills from class. Periodically, students will be assigned a "Sketchbook Challenge" drawing with specific directions. Sketchbook will be graded 3 times during the rotation. Examples of skills and techniques are shading, blending colors, creating patterns, creating patterns with multiple colors, creating the illusion of 3D, arranging a composition, etc.
