How do artists draw from observation? 300 2. How do artists organize a drawing from observation? 400 This unit emphasizes: describing form with value, describing form with line, composing the picture plane, and the observational techniques of scale, proportion and sighting. 400 400 500 When students are exploring observational drawing in Art 1, they will develop the ability to: 500 -- render form through value, 500 -- define form through line, 500 -- organize space in the picture plane, 500 -- apply the techniques of sighting, scale, and proportion. 500 600 All students will: 600 600 -- use value in rendering form from observation, 600 -- use line in rendering form from observation, 600 -- apply observational drawing techniques, 600 -- view examples of art, 600 -- receive feedback on their artwork. 700 1. Homework is used as a formative and summative evaluation tool. 700 2. Quizzes, tests, and alternative assessments may be 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. 800 Students will attend field trips for drawing from observation.
