Ms. Dawkins is back today and things art slowly falling back into place.  She seems okay and says that her trip to Arizona was great.  I cleaned things up before she left and put into effect on Friday a "clean up" system.  At the beginning of class two students will be chosen to clean everything up before they leave and they will get five extra credit points added onto an assignment.  I introduced this to todays class because I hadn't had them since I introduced  the new program.  The students are slowly getting done and because of the, I don't want to save lack of motivation because most are doing very well, but lack of ability to whip up a project in four weeks I have extended the project to May 19, when we will start the exam on the Principles and Elements of Art.
