Strategies

Student Learning Activities

· Games/ group activities · Visual · Individual Experimentation/ Activities/ Projects

· Review Art Room Procedures : “Hand does the Talking”, “Freeze/Thaw” , “Ready to Work” feeling · Trees: what are they? Where do we find them? How would you describe them? What is an easy way to tell someone about trees? (drawings? Pictures?) Talk about 2 types of trees: Evergreens and Deciduous/ how would we draw them? · Have students make quick drawings of trees- stop/ show slideshow: what actual trees look like: parts of the trees: trunk, branches (large to small) and leaves (have them do this on the board) · Introduction to project: Tree Painting- Students will be creating a painting of at least 3 trees- need to include 2 types/what trees look like in the fall · Next week: introduction to Art monitor Jobs/ practicing painting set up and clean up. · DAY 2- Review: 2 types of trees: Evergreens and Deciduous/ how would we draw them? · Demo: mixing the secondary colors, using the brushes- will be working with the tempera paint/ Make sure students understand how to take paint from their pallets and put it in their mixing pallets to make the secondary colors. They must wash their brushes out each time that they get a new color from the pallets. (Demonstrate all)/ show how to paint various types of leaves- difference between leaves and needles · Set up every one for painting- students finished with their trees may begin painting: students will be painting leaves and needles today- if finished they may make brown for their trunks.
