5th graders learned about the artist Pablo Picasso through a Power Point presentation with a focus on his Cubism/abstract portaits. Students then went to the website www.picassohead.com. Here they were able to quickly brainstorm ideas for their clay project. I explained to them it was like sketching out and brainstorming their ideas for how they wanted to build their portairt digitally. Once they had some ideas they liked, then they drew out their design on paper. ( I could only get our Chromebook cart for a week, due to testing, hence the drawing out their ideas hard copy). The following two classes were used for reviewing clay attaching techniques and rolling slabs, and building their clay portraits. I usually prefer to glaze with my older grades, but we were in a time crunch with it being the end of the year, and goofy schedules with field trips, concerts, graduations, ect. They still look wonderful painted and glossed with Modge Podge.Alison Piercehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10556167503897687787noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5419890054059513471.post-40933021133079695532017-05-24T21:27:00.000-05:002017-05-24T21:27:01.686-05:00Flower Weavings<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I'm always looking for a new way to teach an artist I like to cover year after year. 4th graders learned about Georgia O'Keeffe through a video and Power Point presentation. They first did pencil drawings and then traced their drawing onto metal tool. Originally in the lesson I was only going to have the student's do flowers, but I had a few boys in my first 4th grade section ask if they could do cow skulls instead. I said absolutely, what a great idea and I loved they were thinking about the artist but also what they wanted to do. Students who did a flower used colored Sharpies to color in flowers and students who did skulls used black acrylic paint to create a patina. Lastly they added wire and did some beading at the bottom of their art piece.Alison Piercehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10556167503897687787noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5419890054059513471.post-48986256727064235712017-05-24T21:16:00.003-05:002017-05-24T21:16:39.838-05:00Circle Weavings<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

End of year review on a two concepts we learned at the beginning of the year: various kinds of lines used in art and primary colors. We also reviewed painting skills and techniques. Students were assessed on primary color knowledge before the painting lesson for the second time this year as well.Alison Piercehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10556167503897687787noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5419890054059513471.post-31977727617599444852017-03-06T10:55:00.001-06:002017-03-06T10:55:21.576-06:00Another Art Baby!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

My posts have been scarce this school year because of this little lady. Paisley Cynthia came 3 weeks early! I needed one more week to wrap things up in my classroom and complete my to do list before I went on leave...but such is life. I'm loving my time home with her and my other two kids. It is so nice to be able to attend my older children's school functions and activities during the week, I never get to do it without taking time off. And I love having the days alone with my little Paisley! She is a wonderful baby. It seems our art department goes in spurts of having years filled with art babies. We have 3 this year:) Paisley's friends should be joining the world in a few weeks then we get to have art baby play dates:)<br /><br />Alison Piercehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10556167503897687787noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5419890054059513471.post-38472274282465314912016-12-14T15:47:00.005-06:002016-12-14T15:47:53.935-06:00Paper Mache Snowmen<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Forgot to post this lesson from last spring- found the photos as I was deleting old images from my camera. 1st graders learned about painter Georges Seurat through a short cartoon. I happen to travel to the Chicago Art Institute while doing this lesson so I was able to photograph some of his paintings while there to show my classes as well. They learned how to paint in the pointillism style. To achieve this, I had them use cotton swabs and the back ends of various size paint brushes. It took awhile, but was a nice end of the year lesson.Alison Piercehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10556167503897687787noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5419890054059513471.post-89630693508230461822016-10-13T11:58:00.001-05:002016-10-13T11:58:03.930-05:00Geometric Cats<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

learned the difference between geometric and free-form shapes. Geometric shapes
are math shapes, such as circles, triangles, rectangles or squares. Free-form
shapes are shapes that are uneven and not regular and often made up by the
artist, like the shape of a leaf or cloud. Students each created a cat using
only geometric shapes. This project was also great for first graders to work on
their basic art skills of using scissors safely, cutting, and gluing! Way to go
first grade artists!</span><span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">2nd graders learned about the warm and
cool colors of the color wheel. They used warm and cool colors to paint paper
that was then used to create jack o’ lantern mosaics. We discussed that mosaics

stone, tile, or glass. We created paper mosaics. Students paid close attention
to leave space around all the colored shapes they glued to create the mosaic
look. We reviewed gluing and cutting skills/ expectations as well. Learning

First and second graders looked at Keith Haring's website under the kids section to learn facts about his life and work as an artist. The first graders traced each other's bodies and worked in small groups of 4 or 5 to paint in the figure. The second graders were responsible for outlining the figures in black and adding the painted black lines and shapes in the backgrounds. This was a great one day lesson for the first week back in art:) <br />

2nd graders learned all about the ancient art of glass blowing and glass sculptor Dale Chihuly. We looked at examples of all his different sculptures and watched a video on the glass blowing process. It's so interesting that even though it is an ancient art form, over 2000 years old, little has changed about it and how artists create their pieces. Many of the tools that glass blowers use today are the same ones used 2000 years ago.<br />

Students learned about the elements and principles of design in preparation of middle school art. We covered all elements through a Smart Board lesson. For their art project we focused on color, line, shape, value (contrast), and emphasis. We first drew the eyes in chalk pencil and then the students used chalk pastel to add color and value. I always feel like pastels are challenging for students to use because they get so messy and the project can turn south quickly if not given proper guidance and instruction. These 5th graders did a great job for one of their last elementary projects!Alison Piercehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10556167503897687787noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5419890054059513471.post-67086651475128887582016-05-19T10:07:00.000-05:002016-05-19T10:07:04.190-05:00Aboriginal Hand/ Dot Paintings<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This is the second year I've done this clay project with first grade. I love it, clay in a day!! It's a great introductory lesson to clay that is hands on but requires minimal steps and attaching techniques. It's really a no fail project. I saw it floating around Pinterest on several different art blogs. It is an amazing gift for the little ones to take home to mom (or grandma, or auntie....whoever). I love how proud they are of it too. We usually do a little writing to go a long with it. This year I did top ten reasons why my mom is the best. Writing is hard with first grade, especially when you have no clue how to teach it!! Kudos to the classroom teachers:)Alison Piercehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10556167503897687787noreply@blogger.com0
