Taking Visuals at LJA!

Hey guys I just wanted to talk about what it's like to take visuals in LJA. Before I get started heres the list of project we did in my group of rotation that I can remember:
1. Hand Drawing
2. Milk Cloth Panting
3. Nature photographs for art vocab cards
4. Starry Night Piece
5. Egyptian letter to teacher
6. Egyptian summative project
How the class works:
1. Find your seat
2. The teacher explains what to do
3. You get busy and try to get as much work done as possible
In my opinion the project were fun and interesting. I really enjoyed visuals but the only thing I didn't like is that she only gave us to days to turn in the assignment so you have to be a fast worker and you also want to make it look like your best. I think if you love patterns, panting, and photographs then you'll enjoy the visuals. The hardest part was getting it done so I had almost got sent to this thing called study skills. I was so tired because that day I didn't go to bed till elven at night got up up at five thirty in the morning just to study for spelling bee! I didn't have breakfast then later had to miss my lunch! Not fun.........
Overall I think it was such a cool experience; I learned so much such as the vocab words, the styles and techniques in art. I learned a little bit about Egypt. If you love art as much as I do then you'll love visuals. I plan to take next year but, I'm not  a hundred percent sure because that means I'll be spending my year in study skills or in the art room.
I recommend that you try and take your time at the same time as work fast because that way you can get things done in a timely manner. If I were to go back I would have done that. Also try not to talk so much because that makes it hard to focus which then you get nothing done. I suggest you also use mechanical pencil 0.7 or less when drawing because it will make life much easier since you can get into small spaces easier.
Thank you for reading I ho[e you got a feeling of what it's like to take visuals.
