May 25 Review of Performances and Projects

 Remember to write you full name a class period on the first line of your entry.

1.  For this week, if you did not do last week's blog, do that.  This is the prompt:

Since we are finished going to performances for this year,  it's time to sit back and reflect about what we remember from each performance.  This is the first of several blogs that will ask you to review the entire year.  These are the performances we attended:
A Servant of Two Masters
The Daughter of the Regiment
Much Ado About Nothing
The Tristan Effect
Rigoletto
The Sleeping Beauty
The Consul (optional)
The Importance of Being Earnest
Carmina Burana
Tales of Hoffmann

  • Rank the shows from 1 to 10:  The most successful production/performance would be 1; the least successful production/performance would be 10.  If you didn't go to The Consul then that will be 10.  
  • Then write at least three or four sentences for each performance explaining why you ranked it the way you did. 
2.  If you already answered prompt #1, then answer this prompt:

Review the non-performance aspects of the class.  Write at least 15 sentences, explaining what the best parts of the class (assignments, Rob's visits, blogs, etc) were.  Then write what the least effective aspects of the class were.  Be nice.

May 11 Art History Part II

Don't forget to write your full name and class period on the first line of your entry.

Choose your favorite work of art from the style you have been studying and write 15 sentences about that piece.  Explain why you like it, why it's a good example of the style, and analyze how the piece works in terms of color, form, arrangement, and subject.

As always be intelligent, entertaining, and wildly creative.
