Please keep an eye out for a paper coming home about Artsonia!
I would sincerely appreciate all parents help with getting our kids approved to use this app.
Artsonia is an platform for student digital portfolios. I would really like students to be responsible this year for keeping track of each project they complete in a digital portfolio on Artsonia. Artsonia is a safe, educational program designed to connect parents and families with their child's creative activities at school, therefore we need parent permission for each child to use Artsonia in school.
*If you already signed up at open house, please check your email to verify your approval.

It only takes two easy steps:
1. Go to artsonia.com/permission
2. Type in your child's "screen name" and your "parent code" from the paper your child brings home. You will then be emailed all the information about how to view your child's artwork after they upload it in class.
Here are the best benefits of Artsonia:
1. It is a wonderful way for students to track their growth throughout the year, and from year to year.
2. It is a great way for parents and families to see finished work before I am able to send it home, as I often keep artwork to hang up around the school and for the art show in May.
3. It helps students understand the process of building a portfolio and taking pride in their work.
4. Families are able to purchase custom items such as magnets, keychains, coffee mugs, shirts, etc. with student artwork on them. A portion of the purchases come right back into our classroom to buy supplies.
