Date of Instruction:  01/05/24

Opening (I Do)

An engaging process for lesson introduction that is specifically planned to encourage equitable and purposeful student participation. Describe the instructional process that will be used to introduce the lesson.

TKES 1, 2, 3,4,5, 8,10

Standard/s: 

VAHSVA.CR.4 Incorporate formal and informal components to create works of art. 

a. Use principles of design to organize elements of art to create unified compositions. 

Learning Target:

I can identify the elements and of design in the environment and in works of art

I incorporate formal and informal components in works of art

I recognize the role of value and form in design

I can apply value and form in works of art through a variety of techniques and media

Success Criteria:

I  identified the elements  in the environment and in works of art with an emphasis on the roles of value and form

I incorporated by formal and informal components in works of art through the use of value and form

I created a series of drawings the emphasized the visual components of value and form

Introduction/Connection: 

Review the following terms

Elements of Design -  the foundation of all visual design.  These building blocks consist of line, shape, form, texture, space, value and color.

Value - refers to dark and light; the value scale refers to black and white with all gradations of gray in between.  Value contrasts help us to see and understand two-dimensional works of art. 

Form:  Shape and form have the same qualities except shape is two-dimensional and form is three-dimensional; it describes volume and mass.  Both may be organic or inorganic, freeform or geometric, natural or man-made.

DIRECT INSTRUCTION:

The teacher will identify  examples of the formal design elements and in the environment

The teacher will identify examples of the formal design elements in art

The teacher will identify the role of value and form  in the environment 

The teacher will identify examples of the use of value and form  in visual design.

TKES 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7. 8,10

GUIDED PRACTICE:  

Shape Drawing Exercises

The student will complete a value based drawing

These will be  incorporated into a form based composition where value is used to create the illusion form. 

INDEPENDENT/COLLABORATIVE PRACTICE/DIFFERENTIATION:

Creativity Exercise

Students will create a series of drawings that illuminate the use of the elements of design.

Students will recognize and apply value in a composition

Value will be used in the drawing to create the illusion of form

Closing  (We Check)

Describe the instructional process that will be used to close the lesson and check for student understanding .

TKES : 1,2,3, 4,5,6,7,8

SUMMARIZE/CHECK FOR UNDERSTANDING:

Complete a value and form composition that recognizes and applies  the elements of design in the surrounding environment and  works of art 

Informal evaluations of both emerging and completed shape compositions
