Elementary Art Lesson PlansGrades 3-5 Crystina Castiglione ARE 4351 – Thomas Brewer
Wayne ThiebaudDrawing Objectives Statement of Origin The idea for this lesson plan was inspired by the article “Principles of Possibility: Considerations for a 21st Century Art Culture and Curriculum,” by Olivia Gude and the chapter 8 article on “Art Production: Ideas and Techniques,” by Linderman. In the first article Gude stresses the importance of “empowered making” in art education and how “artists and educators who are responsive to the needs of their current students must consider contemporary as well as traditional artistic and critical practice and ask what students need to know to successfully make and understand art and culture today, (Gude, pp. 12, 2007). In the second article, Linderman addresses how to create a still life and the questions involved that students should address when creating one, (Linderman, pp. 124-125, 1997). The images chosen were inspired by an exhibition I have seen in the past at the National Art Gallery. Student’s will learn about artist Wayne Thiebaudand will: -Explore the iconic imagery of mass produced foods that represent American consumerism -How these images are symbolic of popular culture -Understand the elements and principles of light, color, space, repetition, line, shape and composition to create a still life - Examine how advertising is used to market mass produced consumer products by turning their drawing into an advertisement

Lisa KokinSculpture/Mixed Media Objectives Statement of Origin This lesson was inspired by the article, “The School Art Style: A Functional Analysis,” by Efland and the NAEA Advisory, “School Art Versus Meaningful Artistically Authentic Art Education,” by Amy Giles. Both articles emphasize the important of students have an artistically authentic experience by closely following the practices of authentic artists to make quality products that draw from life experiences. I was also inspired by The Sketch Book Project and wanted to incorporate it into the lesson to teach students about the value of visual diaries as a way to record their artistic process and communicate their “art voice” and their relation to the artistic process of bookmaking. . Students will : • Explore bookmaking as an artistic way for artists to express ideas, symbols, and subject matter and to meaningfully incorporate personal family history and written records or prose in a work of art • About the work of artist Lisa Kokin as well as be introduced to “The Sketch Book Project.” • Examine the question “Who I Am” and use their moleskin journals from The Sketch Book Project that incorporates the question and answer into a 3 dimensional work of art.

Juane “Quick-to-See” SmithMixed Media Collage/Painting Objectives Statement of Origin This lesson was Inspired by the article, “Principles of Possibility: Considerations for a 21st Century Art and Culture Curriculum,” by Olivia Gude in which she emphasizes the importance of encountering difference in art by saying, “Good multicultural curriculum introduces us to the generative themes of others – helping us to see the world through the eyes of others-understanding the meaning of artworks in terms of the complex aesthetic, social, and historical contexts out of which they emerge, (Gude, p. 9, 2007). Students will: -Examine the work of artist Juane “Quick-to-See” Smith to understand how artists use their work to represent their cultural and ethnic background and address stereotypes about them -Explore the importance of diversity and how art can help us to learn about cultures other than our own, expand our ideas about the world and develop respect and sensitivity to people that are different from ourselves. -Understand how to mix paint on a palette to create new colors and various paintbrush techniques -Create a painting that portrays their personal cultural background and the symbolism associated with it

Kiel JohnsonCeramics Objectives Statement of Origin The idea for this lesson plan came from class discussions related to the role of the media and technology in art and in contemporary society. Developing it into a ceramics lesson was inspired by the article, “Representational Concepts in Clay: The Development of Sculpture,” by Claire Golomb. The article emphasizes the need to focus on evolving student’s three dimensional representations of objects accurately using clay. Student’s will: -Examine Kiel Johnson’s sculptures in explore how he uses antique machinery and dying technological machines as his subject matter to communicate the role of technology in contemporary society. -Explore the advancing age of technology, its importance as a tool for communication and the differences between form of technology throughout history, and those that we have now -Create a ceramic piece that contrasts with one of Johnson’s sculptures.

PrzemekMateckiMedia Criticism Objectives Statement of Origin This lesson plan originated by class discussions on the role of imagery in the media and “Chapter 11: Art Analysis: Looking at and Responding to Art,” from the book Art in the Elementary School by Linderman. I wanted to incorporate a media criticism into a lesson by using Linderman’s model of analyzing artworks to teach students how to describe, analyze, interpret and judge a work of art.Linderman defends the importance of art analysis by saying, “To have a dialogue with an artwork means to enter into and interact with the work…to experience it by looking at it, responding to it, and comprehending it…perception of just what is art,” (Linderman, p. 215, 1997). Student’s will -Examine the role of images in the media and how PrzemekMatecki uses and reassembles magazine imagery to create works of art -Explore art criticism and answer the question, “what makes something a work of art” -Understand the differences between mass produced imagery and authentic artwork in a media analysis and critique
