I have found myself thinking I should really start teaching 2-point perspective first, then 1-point. I think the "rules" are easier for the students to see, understand, and be able to translate onto their own images. Here are just a few from this week. <br />

<br />
In other words, I want to make sure I'm teaching all sorts of art lessons using as many different art materials as we have in the classrooms in each grade level.<br />
<br />
Clear as mud, right?<br />
<br />
This is what it looks like right now. Green squares are lessons I'm lacking. Pink are things I either forgot to add when I typed it up or things I've added recently. Other writings are the random ideas and lessons I might try to fit in somewhere along the way. <br />
<br />
You'll also notice I've listed all the grades I teach here so from grades 1-8 is the range I'm working on. <br />

The whole point of that introduction is to show you the printmaking week lessons we've started in the middle school. <br />

6th grade made cardboard printing tools for printing collagraphs. Collagraph is a print made from a collage of materials. So we created a design on a piece of matboard and then printed with it. Stay tuned for some final project photos. <br />

7th grade worked in Monoprint/monotype printing. Monoprints and monotypes are known as the most painterly methods among the printmaking techniques, they are called printed paintings.<br />
<br />
Ink is manipulated on a bench plate then a piece of paper is placed on top and pulled off to create the print. <br />

Finally, 8th grade is using linoleum carving blocks to create a symmetrical design, <br />

I want them to be able to create anything with what ever material they have in front of them. It's engineering at it's finest but it can be taught in the art room just as well as in any other classroom in the building.<br />

It is a simple to do yet complicated looking lesson to use for a variety of different ability levels. Students can work with compound cuts and smaller detail sections to bump up the challenge level. I have also given them a two color square challenge for fast finishers. </span><br />

<br />
Back about eleventy billion years ago I did my student teaching at Indiana Junior High School in Indiana County. They were fortunate enough and big enough to be able to have three art teachers who, in turn split up the curriculum and each taught different processes and techniques. <br />
<br />
One of the lessons I taught was this ceramic mash-up where each student drew two slips of paper from bowls, one with an animal and one with an object on it. For example, the student could pick an alligator and a stapler. The final sculpture project needed to include elements of both the animal and the object so the viewer could look at it and say "Oh, that's an <span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>(animal)</i></span>" or "Oh, I see it's an <i><span style="font-size: x-small;">(object)" </span></i><br />
<br />
These are the works in progress so far.... <br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And a new year begins! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So this is my first year in my 20 (gasp!) years of teaching in which I will be working with middle school students in addition to my elementary teaching load. I know the students from the time they spent with me over in the Lenkerville artroom so that part of the first few days was not bad. I didn't have to learn many new names and I knew the students but boy did they get taller!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My biggest challenges this year are going to be age-appropriate lessons, and fitting in all I would usually work on in a year's worth of seeing each class once a week to working with 1/4 of the grade for only a quarter of the year, but seeing each section of them 3 times a week. My planbook is a revolving door right now, and I expect it to be that way at least through the month of September! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here's how we did so far.....
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I started with Notan Paper Cutting with all grades (6,7,8) just to get them and me warmed up with being in the middle school. Nice results and I can see where they all are ability wise at this point. Things I can ask myself are, do they see the positive/negative space relationships? Can they see the reversals in shapes? Plus I check basic things like fine-motor skills just as I would at the elementary level. </div>

<br />
My goal by the end of this week and the beginning of next is to set up a regular posting schedule. Monday Motivations, Wednesday Works and Friday Photos.<br />
<br />
Happy Tuesday!<br />
