Art idea: Value – Still life
Art elements: Value
Art materials: Paper and pencil
Due date: 27.05.2020
Intro:
A still life painting is a piece that features an arrangement of inanimate objects as its subject. Usually, these items are set on a table and often include organic objects like fruit and flowers and household items like glassware and textiles.
Value is a basic element of art that refers to the gradual change of lightness or darkness of a color. It is an important tool for the designer/artist, in the way that it defines form and creates spatial illusions. Contrast of value separates objects in space, while gradation of value suggests mass and contour of a contiguous surface.
Step 1: Draw-Using the video, follow the instructions step by step and develop your drawing (only pencil and any size paper)

Art elements: Line, shape, space, color
Art materials: Paper, color pencil, markers, crayons, soft pastels (whatever you have at home)
Due date:26.04.2020/ Sunday
Intro:
Students explore factors that will influence the future needs of their city and then create project of an environmentally sound city of the future. Before making plans for a community, you need to know and keep in mind many important factors and information. You need to find out where people live, how many people use the streets, highways, water, sewers, schools, libraries, museums, and parks. Students are able to identify and prioritize the services and amenities that affect a city and address real problems a city faces, such as traffic, pollution, waste disposal, and transportation options.
Lesson plan:
Step 1: Sketch
ARCHITECTURAL PRINCIPLES:
Order is the arrangement and organization of elements to help solve visual and functional problems.
Balance is the creation of visual harmony through the use of color and the manipulation of form.
Nature is a model for architectural forms and shapes.
Symbolism is an important means of visual communication for architecture.
Sustainable design of the built environment protects the natural environment.
Climate and the natural environment influence design decisions.
Social structure, culture, and the built environment have a direct influence on one another.
Architecture satisfies emotional and spiritual needs in addition to physical needs.
Past, current and future technologies influence design decisions.
Step 2: Drawing and coloring
Here are some examples, ideas !

Lesson plan 4
Art idea: Greek Theater Mask- Part 3
Art elements: Line, shape, positive/ negative space, and color
Art materials: Paper, color pencil, markers, crayons, soft pastel (whatever you have at home)
Due date:12.04.2020/ Sunday
Lesson plan:
Step 1: Coloring process- Markers (for the masks)
Students who have not used colored paper should color the masks. How? You will needs to use cold and warm colors. Cold colors: green, blue, purple. Warm colors: yellow, red and orange.
On both masks, one half of the face should be colored warm, and the other half of the face should be colored cold color. Be careful!!!! For example ... if you use red and green colors, the part of the face that is green, the half of the nose, one eye and the part of the lip will be red and opposite on the other half of the face!
For both masks use two different colors.
Step 2: Using the video, follow the instructions step by step and develop your drawing.
Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5QQZNY4Lso- from 6:30
No! The paper where you will glue the masks does not need to be black. It can be any color. If you don't have a large enough paper, you can stick two or three papers together. You can even use cardboard. Once you have glued the masks, you start with the background. Play with the line and the size of the form (it doesn't have to be circle). Make sure the line is nicely drawn, that you know where it starts and ends. The material is of your choice, just to be visible!

Lesson plan 3
Art idea: Greek Theater Mask- Part 2
Art elements: Line, shape, positive/ negative space, and color
Art materials: Paper, color pencil, markers, crayons, soft pastel (whatever you have at home)
Due date:4.04.2020/ Sunday
Introduction:
Greek theaters were very large, and while they were built to amplify sound it wasn't always easy to see the actors. In order for the audience members to be able to tell what emotion the actors had they used exaggerated masks. Known as masks of comedy and tragedy.
Lesson plan:
This project as a whole will last for three weeks. In the second week (30.3-4.04) - Part 2, the student is required to make a sketch following the instructions in Video. In this process of creation, the student colors nothing. We're just working on a sketch drawing, cutting and gluing!
Step 1: Using the video, follow the instructions step by step and develop your drawing
- if you have color paper use it, if not use white paper that we will eventually color it and of course any dimension of paper
Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5QQZNY4Lso- till 6:20 min.
If you did the tragedy mask with the sad face expression for the first week, now you are repeating the same process but making a comedy mask with a smile!
Please email me the photo of the finished art project. Thank you!

Grade 4
Art idea: Negative and Positive space
Art elements: space, line, shape
Art materials: pencil, color pencils or markers
Art technique: Drawing
Negative space is essentially the space surrounding an object, figure, or form. This can be the space in an actual place but typically refers to the space in an artwork. Positive space refers to the object, figure, or form that exists within the negative space and is typically what young artists want to concentrate on. Understanding the importance of representing both positive and negative space in an artwork and learning to “see” negative space helps artists to create fuller artistic pieces with greater balance and depth.
