CONTENT ● Students will recognize the different types of perspective
OBJECTIVE(S) ● Students will be able to create depth ● Students will use the vocabulary correctly COMMON CORE ● artists plan, organize, and develop creative ideas, plans, and STANDARD models into process structures that can effectively realize the artistic idea ● The forming, integration, and refinement of aesthetic components, principles, and processes create purpose, meaning, and artistic quality in media artworks ● Media artists integrate various forms and contents to develop complex, unified artworks ● Interpretation and appreciation require consideration of the intent, form, and context of the media and artwork FOCUS/ KEY how does perspective function? QUESTIONS BARRIERS TO Students might not believe in their ability to make art. LEARNING Students might not have access to art supplies at home. Students may have physical or developmental differences. PLANNING WITH Multiple means of Printed-out slide notes can be provided UDL representation along to learners who might be hearing or visually impaired. Fill-in-the-blank notes can also be provided for those who might struggle to follow along. Multiple means of If a student struggles to work with the action and expression materials given (pencils and paper) other materials can be substituted. If a student is visually impaired I might ask them to depict what distance is like for them, what is it like when an object is out of reach? What about that same object, but close enough to feel with just fingertips? That same object fully in their hands? how would they describe this range of depth and what details of the object could they show at each stage? Multiple means of Different assignments could use my engagement kinesthetic materials or auditory elements to depict space without. The final project could be created with a plethora of materials. this Ranges from google SketchUp to popsicle sticks.

LEARNING STRATEGIES DAY 1
INTRODUCTION “The greatest hits” a short introduction to Perspective drawing with art (10min) history sprinkled in for fun! WHOLE CLASS Students will spend the class time practicing single-point perspective. ACTIVITY (20 They will place 6 cubes on a plain and must overlap three of them. If min) students finish this quickly they will practice two and three-point perspectives. Students can also reattempt the first practice without using rulers and then go back in with a straight edge to see how accurate their perspective lines came out. I will touch base with each child making sure to answer questions and give feedback to the class individually. CLOSURE Class clean up and homework assignment are given out (5min) HOMEWORK Students will take home three photos printed one per page in the center of a piece of paper. They are to trace as many perspective lines as possible to find the vanishing point and horizon line. they will need a ruler or straight edge to do so, if they don't have one they can borrow one from the class.
