This is a great resource because it has the objective, National Standards, materials needed, step by step directions, rubrics, and often other resources to go to. The best part is that they have photos of student work and this helps me see a visual, which ultimately determines if I will use the lesson and modify it in some way. Then I will build my own lesson on Google Slides to get the kids motivated. I always review the National Standards for every lesson and post these on the board for each class, along with the vocabulary (in Spanish too)and first couple of steps. https://padlet.com/mdowner2/i2gqsf6jpu5e/wish/215950927 https://www.incredibleart.org/]]> 2017-12-13 19:17:44 UTC https://padlet.com/mdowner2/i2gqsf6jpu5e/wish/215950927 Planning & Connecting https://padlet.com/mdowner2/i2gqsf6jpu5e/wish/215955527

*These are always significant to me when designing ceramics lessons for my high school students. Having students come up with personal connections makes their projects more meaningful & even gives the opportunity for more to talk about during critiques. This can be done through planning sheets.

Also, introducing students to how artists think and resources they use to get their ideas is significant to teach. This can be done using just about any online resource or book about the topics. ]]> 2017-12-13 19:27:03 UTC https://padlet.com/mdowner2/i2gqsf6jpu5e/wish/215955527 Surreal Digital Collages - 8th Grade mlonegan https://padlet.com/mdowner2/i2gqsf6jpu5e/wish/215955706 Content Standard #1: Understanding and applying media, techniques, and processes Achievement Standard: Students analyze what makes them effective or not effective in communicating ideas; and reflect upon the effectiveness of their choices Students intentionally take advantage of the qualities and characteristics of art media, techniques, and processes to enhance communication of their experiences and ideas .

CR2.11
Apply aesthetic criteria in developing, proposing, and refining artistic ideas, plans, prototypes, and production processes for media arts productions, considering original inspirations, goals, and presentation context. 

Student Assignment before every project is to create a mind map of ideas.
Here is a guide to mind mapping.
 
Guidelines for Art Students
When brainstorming ideas for a high school Art project, remember that:
  • Single words are unlikely to express an idea adequately. As you think though possibilities, it is likely that you will want to jot down whole phrases and brainstorm possible ways of beginning or approaching a subject. Intentions and possibilities should be clear to someone else who reads the mind map at a later date
  • Images should be sourced first-hand (i.e. drawn or photographed yourself) or clearly referenced, and should be integrated within the mind map in a visually pleasing way
  • The appearance of the mind map is crucially important. This is likely to be one of the first things an examiner sees when opening your sketchbook – first impressions count

Anchor Standard: Generate and conceptualize artistic ideas and work.
Enduring Understanding: Artists and designers shape artistic investigations, following or breaking with traditions in pursuit of creative artmaking goals.
Essential Question: How does knowing the contexts histories, & traditions of art forms help us create works of art & design? Why do artists follow or break from established traditions? How do artists determine what resources are needed to formulate artistic investigations.

My 5th grade students studied the work of Jean-Michel Basquiat.  They were told that they were going to create a Word Collage using the theme of “Community.” 
Students had to prepare and paint their Masonite board.  They were then given certain color restrictions.  
Their use of paint had to be either monochromatic, color complements or primary colors. Next the students collected words from magazines, newspapers, etc. that had to do with the theme.  The words or phrases were them glued down and sealed with a coat of Modge Podge.
