OK...I am finally back and feeling weak, but better...

Museum Catalogs were collected today. In lieu of a test we worked on the self test in our workbook on pages 215-230.

Chapter 28 read and complete workbook (Including Describing... page 133) that you did Monday and Tuesday while I was out is still due tomorrow.

Work over break.
1. Watch the YouTube Video The Power of Art (Rothko) and complete the worksheet (will post a video worksheet link to the class website).
2. Read chapter 29 and complete the workbook (questions and looking carefully).

Work over break due Monday April 12, 2010. Students whose artists presentations have not happened will present starting the SECOND day of class.

If you want to do AP review over break...take the self-quizzes at the back of BOTH workbook volumes.
