Welcome to RA Jones Middle School Arts page
6th grade classes are VAPA (Visual and Performing Arts). In these classes, we will be exploring the structures, purposes, humanities, and elements of each of the domains of Music, Visual Art, Drama, and Dance.
7th and 8th grade classes had the option last year, to choose their electives in art for further exploration. Those classes will be visual arts focused.

What do I need for class?
Paper
Pencil
eraser
ATL...Attitude towards learning (make it a positive one and you will see success).
****it would also be a good idea to have coloured pencils, crayons, markers, scissors and glue at home to complete projects. These supplies are good to have not only for art but for other classes as well.

Grades, Tests, projects
all students have the opportunity to redo projects, and retake tests. IT is the responsibility of the student to make test corrections and make an appointment to retake the test during their lunch/recess time. projects may be completed at home, but students may not always have the materials at home. THe art room is again, open for student work during lunch/recess, however they need to make an appointment.
To make Test corrections for test retakes:
- Write the number of the question that was incorrect.
- Tell why the answer is wrong and restate the question. For example: Let's say the question asks you what colour is an intermediate colour, and you choose the answer red. To correct that statement, you would write: Red, is not an intermediate colour, because red is a primary colour.
- Tell why the correct answer is correct and restate the question in your answer. Example: The correct answer would be red-violet. Red-violet is an intermediate colour because it is a primary (red) mixed with a secondary colour (violet).
