2 REFLECTIONS Part 2

Students will, with the help of directed questions, finish reflecting on what makes them unique. This information will be used to help them choose symbolism for their final project. They will share some ideas in small table groups.

ABSENT MAKEUP Open the unit handout PDF, print out page 2 of the document, and complete it. If you are not able to print the page, answer the questions on a separate paper and staple it to your handout on your return, and turn in the handout for grading.

WINDOW AND A MIRROR Part 1

Students volunteers will take turns reading this section of the unit handout. After each section, there will be a discussion about it. We will examine art from around the world and various times to reinforce the “window.”

ABSENT MAKEUP Open the unit handout PDF, and read this section on page three of the unit handout.

HOMEWORK REFLECTIONS questions as needed. And keep the idea in the back of your head for the duration of this unit

DUE Reflections Questions Respond to the prompts and contemplate possibilities for the final project WRYRQ—Foundation Layer—30 points based on observed effort and minimum of 15 complete responses

3 WINDOW AND A MIRROR Part 2

After a quick review of part 1, we will examine more examples of art to work on visual literacy skills.

ABSENT MAKEUP Do an image search for surrealism and record at least two images that you have examined closely for symbolism. Turn in the image list to the instructor on your return.

PROJECT OPTIONS Read the opening statement and students are to peruse the options on their own as homework.

5 MEDIA EXPERIMENTS Part 1

Students will experiment with various drawing media, tools, and techniques. The final project concept should be considered when doing this, but the experiments can inform and possibly alter the concept as well. Students need to understand the concepts of pigment, vehicle, binder, solvent, and surface. Students will be introduced to the analogy of: “You want to walk the dog, and not let the dog walk you.”

ABSENT MAKEUP This is critical work to creating the best possible final project. As such, you are expected to do this before starting work on the final. You can come in outside of class time, or use studio production time for this. If you use studio time, you will likely need to come in outside of class time to make up that missed time. Click on the link button below to watch a video that is an analogy for the relationship of art and media.

HOMEWORK Media and project percolation

DUE Concept Sketches As students experiment with media, the instructor will go around the room to assess and consult with them individually about their concept sketches. WRYCS—Foundation Layer—50 points based on observed effort and productivity as well as complete sketch work.

Students will continue to experiment with the media, and when they feel ready, they can start their final project.

ABSENT MAKEUP This is critical work to creating the best possible final project. As such, you are expected to do this before starting work on the final. You can come in outside of class time, or use studio production time for this. If you use studio time, you will likely need to come in outside of class time to make up that missed time.

SETTING THE STAGE The students will complete the required information and consult with the instructor BEFORE their final paper will be cut.

ABSENT MAKEUP Open the unit handout PDF, and be prepared to complete this section on page 6 of the unit handout.

PROJECT STUDIO Day 0 of 8

When students are ready, they will cut their final project paper to size and start work as time allows. They should consider their project option, media choice, and allotted studio production time in choosing a project size. They may choose to work larger than the allotted class time allows, but they will be expected to work outside of class to meet the deadline.

ABSENT MAKEUP Be ready to start your final project on your return. Have an idea size in mind!

HOMEWORK If your final paper is not cut and ready to start, be sure to think about it between classes so that it can be done first thing next class period.

DUE Media Experiments Instructor will observe students as they work. WRYME—Foundation Layer—50 points based on observed effort, productivity, and experimentation. Project Set Up The instructor will review this information with each student individually as they cut their final paper. WRYPSU—Foundation Layer—50 points—5 each for working title and media, 10 points each for challenge, element 1, element 2, and principle. Points will be based on perceived thought in response, formal language, content vocabulary, and formal written structure.
