1. What is value?
2. How is value used in art?

This unit emphasizes a range of values: contrast, texture, form, depth, and
leading the eye.

When students are exploring value in Art 1, they will develop the ability to:
-- create a value scale,
-- describe form with value,
-- demonstrate gradients and contrast with value,
-- create the illusion of depth with value,
-- describe texture with value.

All students will:
-- generate a gradation of value,
-- render form with value,
-- render texture with value,
-- render depth with value,
-- view examples of art,
-- receive feedback on their own artwork.

1. Homework is used as a formative and summative evaluation tool.
2. Quizzes, tests, and alternative assessments may be used to access concrete information such as vocabulary, equipment use, and procedures.
3. Project evaluations may take the form of group critiques, rating scales, checklists, written evaluations, and teacher interviews.
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.
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.
