Please support the art room and our 5th grade students. We are hoping to learn about art related career paths such as jewelry making! This donors choose will fund the supplies for 5th and future 5th grade students to learn and experience first hand jewelry making!! https://www.donorschoose.org/project/my-future-is-as-bright-as-a-gem/3502600/?utm_source=dc&utm_medium=directlink&utm_campaign=teacherhub&utm_term=teacher_2402311&rf=directlink-dc-2018-08-teacherhub-teacher_2402311&challengeid=20431753
This is my first time teaching this lesson. I wanted my students to ease into drawing so we looked at some Optical Illusion art. The kids LOVED the work of Vasarely. We talked about how repeated pattern, color, and line created a sense of movement and/or 3-D in the work. Then we set about investigating how to use a ruler with accuracy to create our grid. It was fantastic seeing the students’ amazement when their lines created the Op art. We then used complementary colors to color them. Great work!
i love this project. We learned about gestures and how to use them to capture movement of life. We then had some student models that we drew. Then we took an action pose and turned it into a sculpture using aluminum foil. Sorry parents if your kid starts using your aluminum! These sculptures are so much fun and everyone seemed to really enjoy it! Enjoy the pictures! Hello Big Shanty I am your new art teacher, Mrs. Thompson! I just wanted to take second to say that I am so excited to meet everyone this year and to be working at such a wonderful and upbeat school. We are off to a great start, we created name tags, learned about colors and emotions, and are starting our next projects.
5th grade will begin gestures and an aluminum foil sculpture 4th grade will discuss Op Art and create their own op art by using a ruler, lines, and complementary colors 3rd grade will learn all about landscapes and draw their own with a foreground, middle ground, and background. Pictures of projects to follow in the next post! So stay tuned! |
