What are the qualities of a good self-portrait? 300 2. How does one apply proportion to a self-portrait? 300 3. How does the use of a variety of media effect the expressive quality of the self-portrait? 400 This unit emphasizes learning the advanced concepts in composition and point of view, working with the elements of art and principles of design, working with appropiate drawing techniques for specific purposes, exploring a variety of media, learning the observational techniques of scale, proportion, and sighting, defining form through value, texture, and mark making, and observing various works and styles of art. 500 When students are creating a self-portrait, they will develop the ability to: 500 -- intrepret and demonstrate appropiate sketching techniques for specific purposes, 500 -- demonstrate a proficiency in drawing from observation, 500 -- observe the self-portrait as expressive subject matter, 500 -- use appropiate drawing tools and techniques to achieve specific effects, 500 -- illustrate ways that illusions of weight, mass, and volume are achieved in drawing, 500 -- demonstrates successful compositional skills, 500 -- express feelings through the venue of their self-portraits, 500 -- examine selected styles and movements in art, 500 -- expressing ideas through verbal, written, and visual formats. 500 500 500 600 All students will: 600 600 -- apply, create, and problem solve to organize knowledge and ideas to communicate visually, 600 -- demonstrate, analyze, and apply criteria to make visual judgements, 600 -- demonstrate a strong proficiency in drawing media and techniques to create a self-portrait, 600 -- demonstrate a proficiency in drawing from observation, 600 -- research artistic styles of artists, 600 -- respond to and receive feedback on their own artwork. 600 700 1. Homework is used as a formative and summative evaluation tool. 700 2. Quizzes and tests are used to access concrete information such as vocabulary, equipment use, and procedures. 700 3. Project evaluations may take the form of group critiques, rating scales, checklists, written evaluations, and teacher interviews. 700 4. A portfolio demonstrates skills learned and personal, aesthetic growth. The body of work stands as a visual record of the creative process experienced throughout the semester. 700 5. Group discussions give insight into the creative process and problem solving, providing an avenue for learning, how to talk about art, how to view art, and how to improve one's skills.
