Strategies

Student Learning Activities

· Games/ group activities · Visual · Individual Experimentation/ project

· Review Procedures: “Hand does the Talking” /“Freeze/Thaw”/“Ready to Work”/ “Clean Up Review names of artists · Introduce the work of David Park: Slide Show- was an artist who mainly painted people in Northern California in the 1950’s. He often used very bright colors next to much darker colors. More intense colors are straight from the tube, or mixed right from the tube. We can create less intense or more dull colors by adding a colors compliment (review color wheel) Park often painted people playing outside/ at the beach/ having fun in summer time activities. · Introduction to project: Students will be creating their second self portrait. They will create a fairly large portrait of them selves(chest neck & head – maybe some arms) involved in some sort of summertime activity. Think about making a window box (or have some cut) with your fingers- only drawing a small amount of the entire scene on our papers. · Once students finish their drawings they may begin painting · Demo: Using colors like David park: Show students how to create more and less intense colors- how they work when places next to each other/ colors don’t have to be actual real colors/ show how to use various colors to show light/ bright colors next to dark colors · Days 2-3 · Remind students that they can use any color for the bright light of the sun- it just needs to be next to a very dark color. · Students should continue painting- covering up the entire page/ students may want to use a smaller brush to work on the details, or go back and paint in some of the details that may have been covered up · Free Drawing and coloring pages available when finished
