6. Procedures/Methods-
|
|
A. Introduction-
1.1. Read the book, The Very Hungry Caterpillar. Look at all of
the different pictures in the book. Ask students if they notice anything
different about the pictures in the book.
2.Discuss how the pictures are made of different pieces of colored
paper, cut into shapes. These shapes are then glued down by the artist
to create another shape or shapes. Tell the students to notice all
the different shapes that were made to create the caterpillar.
|
| |
|
|
B. Development-
1. Show students by example how to possibly re-create the caterpillar
from the story.
2. Possibly demonstrate in the front of the classroom so that all
children may see.
3. Also have examples that you have created to show them. |
| |
|
|
C. Practice-
1.Have circular shapes from tissue paper for the body of the caterpillar
ready for students to glue. Also have strips of tissue paper cut for
the use of other parts of the caterpillar, e.g. antennae, feet, nose,
etc.
2. Have students create the body of their caterpillars like you demonstrated
before.
3.Walk around the room to lend help to those who need it. |
| |
|
|
D. Independent Practice-
1.Once they all have a feel for what they are doing, continue to
let them create their caterpillars on their own.
2. Make sure they add all parts necessary to make a caterpillar.
2.When the glue is dry, add hair to the caterpillar using crayons
or colored pencils.
3.Once everyone has completed their art, have the students one by
one explain to class their art techniques used. |
| |
|
|
E. Accommodations (Differentiated Instruction)-
1.For those with learning disabilities, have a pre-printed caterpillar
ready to use.
2.Have students to paint the preprinted caterpillar and show them
several artistic techniques associated with painting.
3.Once they have completed their paintings, have them to reiterate
some of the techniques you showed them. |
| |
|
|
F. Checking for understanding-
1. When students are presenting their lessons, make sure they are
using art vocabulary when describing their techniques used.
|
| |
|
|
G. Closure-
1. Ask students what they learned when doing this lesson.
2. What do they feel is the most important thing is when completing
this task? |
| |
|
7. Evaluation-
|
1.See if students seem to grasp an understanding of art technique
and vocabulary.
2.Do the students follow instructions when presented with a project? |
