Art Classes Develop Skills To teach students to understand and appreciate the art of painting is the main obiective of the art classes at Aldine. ln art classes students are taught the uses and techniques of various media in paintings and drawings. Some of the media techniques are charcoal, pastel, chalk, pen and ink etchings, water color, still life, fashion illustra- tion, figure drawing and oil paintings. Oil paint- ings techniques are done through the use of the acrylic polymer emulsion technique. The students also studying lettering and lay-out composition. Throughout the course application and relationship are made to various media by a brief study of the history of the media and the artists in the past who have used them. This year there were three classes of first year art and one class of second year art at Aldine High School. lls , ffl - r f ,r '-..,,,s Linda Cook and Barbara Greenhaw put their heads together to make an original poster.

Consisting of mechanical drawing and woodshop, students are trained in skills that will be useful in the future. These skills are especially useful in the fields of engineering, drafting, and construc- tion. ln woodshop, the students are trained in gen- eral woodwork to give them an idea of some of the methods used in construction. The stu- dents build everything from tie racks to gun cabinets and work on various proiects through- out the year. ln' mechanical drawing the goal is to teach the students enough about vocational drafting so that they will be able to hold a position upon gradua- tion. During the course of a year the students are instructed in pipe, technical, and architectural drafting. t . ...-.feff......fxa1s L. E. Acme lls. Sul Ross State, B.S. Teaches-Voc. drafting A .. ,.
