8th grade MakerSpaces (a combined class taught by Ms. Porras and Mr. Grant) blends Digital Art and Design concepts with STEM learning. 8th graders designed and built fully-functional cardboard chairs as a part of learning the design and production process.
8th graders also created "Moonshot projects"-- an idea inspired by project Google X, where students are challenged to bring radically innovative solutions to a reality. Students worked in groups to engage in STEAM related challenges. At the end of the quarter, we asked students to present their work via the padlet below, where they were able to marvel and comment on each other's work!
7th grade Digital Arts & Design:
Students create choice projects that involve in-depth project planning and goal setting. Check out their amazing work below! DAAD students participated in an online discussion where they shared their work and gave each other feedback (Click on the links below each group's name to see their presentations). Here is some amazing digital work that was created inside the DAAD room!

8th grade- Alternative Photography:
In 6th grade DAAD, students are engaged in their first choice project where students are practicing active problem-solving and creative thinking. Students are exposed to real-world projects like home design, digital photography, graphic design, video game design, coding, app development, and product design. In 7th grade DAAD, students have worked hard to finish their "Bad Hair Day" Photoshop projects. Studying one of the Design principles, students learned about how lines can be expressive. Using a subject of their choice, their challenge was to re-invent that subject's hair. Here are a few examples! In 8th grade Alternative Photography, students have been learning about camera functions, and photography composition basics. For their first project, students had to use the "rule of thirds" to frame a subject of their choice into a photograph. From there, students will take that picture and manipulate it in 3 different ways using Photoshop.
