Exploring and Researching Analyzing and Evaluating I can make sure every page has a title and date. I can stick in pictures neatly, cutting them out and labeling them appropriately. I can find out information about what we have studied in class and write it in my book in my own words. I use all the space on each page. I can compare and discuss the work of different Artists. I can comment on why they made artwork. I can discuss my own work and talk about how to change or improve it. I am starting to take creative risks when I present my research. My sketchbook is looking colorful and exciting. I have selected interesting information to add to the work that we covered in class. I can discuss why and how Artists made different artworks. I can talk about how ideas develop according to context (what was happening in the life of the Artist) I can evaluate my own work, and other peoples, by thinking about why it was made. I can refine my own work after evaluating it. I can find out useful information by doing careful research, and I can present this in my sketchbook. Most of my sketchbook pages have titles and dates. I leave no blank pages. I can do my research by using different resources. I can describe Art work and make comments about it, and explain why I like or dislike it. I can look at other peoples Art work and use it to help me make my own Artwork better.

My book has a contents page that has numbers, and numbered pages too. I have researched different things and written about them in my own words.
