Students will practice design styles beginning with one-sided triangular designs, moving on to all-sided
designs that are used in every day design.
Students will be required to be proficient in a list of design styles by the end of the class so that we may
move on to the next level in Floral Design II.
Relationship to Campus Theme: Flowers and plants are some of the most beautiful aspects of nature
and students will practice arranging flowers in a pleasing natural style. Technologies that have evolved
through the years will be covered as they apply to cut flower care and handling.
Classroom Policies:
Students are expected to attend classes daily and work alongside and respectfully with other students.
Cell phone use should be curtailed to breaks.
Student Email Policy:
Dakota College at Bottineau is increasingly dependent upon email as an official form of
communication. A student’s campus-assigned email address will be the only one recognized by
the campus for official mailings. The liability for missing or not acting upon important
information conveyed via campus email rests with the student.
Academic Integrity:
Students must perform His/Her own work. Since this is a personal hands on class this should be easy to
do. This class is all about you and your ability to develop your talent for design. If you put your all into it
you will come away with a skill that should be able to get you employed in the floral industry.
Disabilities and Special Needs:
See me if you have any requirements for taking tests or have issues with lifting and standing for
extended periods of time.
