Art Contest!!!

Air, Fire by Auguste Herbin


Grades: Everybody!
Points: 0.5 + super cool surprise prizes!


Have you seen the walls of the English classroom? They're all white and boring. That is why I would like to invite you to a super cool art contest to help us decide what we can paint on them. These are the rules:


1. Students must submit an art project for two of the walls in the room: the one with the door and the little window, and the one with the fans. 


2. All artwork must be an original creation of the student. The student must be able to reproduce the project on the walls of the classroom by himself/herself.


3. The art project will be submitted in a piece of paper, like the ones used for "Dibujo". Art submitted in a different format, like cartulina, cartón paja, etc. will not be accepted. 


4. The art project will be submitted with an alias, that is, a false name. This way the jury will be objective. It must be turned in a folder or envelope to Ms. Alexandra Yandin.


5. The art project must reflect one or the combination of more than one of these topics:
a) Our Bible verse for this year: Revelations 17:14b or our slogan, "Jesus, Lord and King"
b) Cultural encounter between Colombia and the United States of America.
c) The privilege of studying in Colegio Americano
d) Colombian biodiversity
e) The blessing that means being Colombian.


6. All art projects must be turned in by November 30. There will be no extensions under any circumstances.


7. The winner art project will be painted on the walls of the classroom. Participant students will also get an extra credit of 0.5 on any activity in English class.


God bless you and may He grant you lots of creativity!!
