Lesson Plan: City Streets in One-Point Perspective Grade Level 5th grade and above One-Point Perspective Table of Contents Introduction Preparation Procedure ... Complete lesson plan National Visual Art Standards The following National Visual Art Standards can be applied to this lesson: Fifth-Eighth Grade GRADES 5-8 CONTENT AND ACHIEVEMENT STANDARDS Except as noted, the standards in this section describe the cumulative skills and knowledge expected of all students upon exiting grade 8. Students in grades 5-7 should engage in developmentally appropriate learning experiences to prepare them to achieve these standards at grade 8. These standards presume that the students have achieved the standards specified for grades K-4; they assume that the students will demonstrate higher levels of the expected skills and knowledge, will deal with increasingly complex art works, and will provide more sophisticated responses to works of art. Determining the curriculum and the specific instructional activities necessary to achieve the standards is the responsibility of states, local school districts, and individual teachers. VISUAL ARTS (5-8) Students in grades 5-8 continue to need a framework that aids them in learning the characteristics of the visual arts by using a wide range of subject matter, symbols, meaningful images, and visual expressions. They grow ever more sophisticated in their need to use the visual arts to reflect their feelings and emotions and in their abilities to evaluate the merits of their efforts. These standards provide that framework in a way that promotes the students' thinking, working, communicating, reasoning, and investigating skills and provides for their growing familiarity with the ideas, concepts, issues, dilemmas, and knowledge important in the visual arts. As students gain this knowledge and these skills, they gain in their ability to apply the knowledge and skills in the visual arts to their widening personal worlds.

Lesson Plan: City Streets in One-Point Perspective Grade Level 5th grade and above Many artists are very interested in making two-dimensional artworks look three-dimensional. During the Renaissance, artists used mathematics and close observation to invent "linear perspective"-a technique that helps artists make things look three dimensional. This lesson teaches the basics of drawing forms in one-point perspective. Students can then transform their drawings into a city scene. This lesson can be paired with Sanford's lesson plan "Fantasy Buildings in Two- Point Perspective" which covers much of the same content but the teaches two-point perspective techniques. Online Activities If you have a computer with Internet access in your classroom, you can introduce your students to one-point perspective online. Sanford's Lifetime of Color web site (http://www.sanfordcorp.com) offers online activities/tutorials about perspective and depth. You can also find helpful Technique Demos, ArtEdventures and Lessons which will reinforce the concepts and techniques taught in this lesson. Background Students should understand the basic concepts of creating depth (overlap, size, position, detail and color). Students should understand how to use a ruler (or triangle) as a straight-edge. They should be familiar with vertical, horizontal and diagonal lines.

updated at midnight GMT search nature science update advanced search Doctors examine art Art appreciation class improves student doctors' diagnosis. 12 September 2001 HELEN PEARSON Henry Wallis's 'The Death of Chatterton': putting the art into diagnostics. "Physicians should be more like Sherlock Holmes," says Irwin Braverman. His new research suggests that art-appreciation classes could teach medical students the sleuthing skills they need: trainee doctors' diagnoses improve after they have learnt how to look at the whole picture. Medical students often miss the details that clinch a diagnosis, says Braverman, of Yale University School of Medicine in New Haven, Connecticut. In an effort to overcome this observational blindness, he teamed up with the Yale Center for British Art to give first-year students a fine-art class. After only two hours spent studying a classical painting and being questioned on what they saw, students' diagnostic skills improved . They were better able to pick out key clues in patient photos than were a group who sat through an additional anatomy lecture. Art-appreciation classes are now part of the curriculum for all Yale medical students. Challenging students' assumptions "is exactly the kind of reasoning you try and provoke in clinical diagnosis", agrees John Spencer, who studies medical education at the University of Newcastle in England.

Visual Manna SALEM, MISSOURI arthis@rollanet.org Visual Manna provides home school, private school and public school art programs Sharon Jeffus Our Philosophy of Teaching Art We believe each child is imbued by God to be innately creative. First and foremost, God is a creative God and we were created in His image. This means that we possess some of the attributes of God, only in a finite way. We believe each child is imbued by God to be innately creative. It is our goal to bring out that special and precious creativity and individuality in each child that we teach. We believe it is important to introduce them to many different mediums and various techniques so that they can have the skills needed to express their creativity. We believe the study of the master works of art can facilitate the student's understanding of how techniques have been applied in the past. This gives understanding of how previous masters have overcome various technical problems to express their creativity more fully. Most education today is geared to rote memorization and regurgitation of the facts, techniques and methods. Many times art is taught in a similar method to math, science, history or English. Pressure to perform to arbitrary standards is often placed on students restricting their creativity to the demands of conformity and to the need for expedience in measuring performance in relationship to the norm. Creativity is as individual and unique as snowflakes.

Submit Questions #1: What Can I Do To Teach Art At Home? Reply: Holly Kamprath There is a lot more to art than making and doing. A huge part of art is awareness and appreciation. It is very important to raise our levels of awareness, which will in turn raise our levels of interest in art. An example of a fun awareness / appreciation experience would be looking at and learning about hand blown glass. Sheldon Art Gallery, on UNL's campus is currently showing glass in an exhibition, entitled Fired and Frozen. The show opens December 4, 1997 and runs through February 1, 1998. In conjunction with going to the gallery, it would be important to increase our levels of understanding how glass is made and blown. Lincoln City Libraries has an excellent video which can be checked out and viewed which does a great job of explaining and demonstrating hand blown glass.

34. National Gallery Of Art - Best Practices (Renshaw) Parents were so impressed and intrigued by their children's progress that a groupof them asked Joyce to teach an adult class in art appreciation a class http://www.nga.gov/education/renshaw.htm

Art Appreciation and the National Gallery's Videodisc Starting with the idea of teaching art appreciation skills to her kindergarten students, Joyce Renshaw ended up developing her own curriculum in the visual arts using large scale art reproductions and the National Gallery of Artís videodisc. Joyce's curriculum was the outgrowth of skills acquired in several art enrichment programs taken over the years. In 1989 she participated in the National Gallery's Teacher Institute where she and her colleagues studied multidisciplinary approaches to teaching American art, and in 1990, she returned for the program on French impressionism and post-impressionism. She has also participated in teacher institutes sponsored by the Getty Center for Education in the Arts, in which she was first introduced to art educator Edmund Feldman's methods of visual analysis and art criticism. Inspired in part by Feldmanís progressive stages of visual analysis, Joyce developed a method for asking open-ended questions that allowed children to describe, analyze, and interpret what they see in a particular image. Called "Learning to Read Art," Joyce's teaching approach encourages students to begin by observing the structural elements of the work: the use of line, color, shape, texture, perspective, balance, repetition, rhythm, contrast, and emphasis in composition. They also study the work's historical context, including how it relates to styles of different periods and how it may reflect issues central to the artist's life and time period.

Art curriculum, high quality art supplies, videos, art camps, support group art workshops, and a variety of art books that are meant to encourage and inspire your visual and kinesthetic learners are provided by Visual Manna. Teaching Science Through Art Teaching Geography Through Art Teaching History Through Art Teaching English Through Art are a variety of books offered with many hands on projects. In the October issue 2000 of Educational Leadership Magazine , there was an article entitled, "Art Becomes the Fourth R," that states..."the multimedia environment of the web, as well as much of what we experience through our computers, requires students to think and communicate as designers and artists. The age of art has arrived, leaving behind the text-centric world that has guided us for so long..." We, at Visual Manna, are ready for the challenge! Sharon Jeffus Our Philosophy of Teaching Art Creativity is as individual and unique as snowflakes. If three architects are presented with a design problem for a particular building, they will all solve the problem differently. Art students should be taught and encouraged to study a variety of techniques and methods. They can then discover solutions to their design problems, and come up with their own unique creation.

Creatively Teaching Multicultural Art Text and photography by Marvin Bartel , Ed.D., Professor of Art and Art Education Goshen College Other essays in Art Education by this author can be found at this link Can I teach art in a ways that makes my students take pride in their own cultural identity while gaining respect and appreciation for the art of other cultures? Those teaching in international schools are likely to have students with more diversity or at least more understanding of cultural diversity than an art teacher in a national school. In North America, I frequently see school displays of projects based on tribal art of Native American Tribes. Some of these are dolls that are felt to have magic powers in their traditional settings. Some are totem pole projects that are copies of Native American Totems. OWNERSHIP ISSUES Is it right to imitate what might be sacred or at least traditional in another culture? How do I teach art in a way that makes my students take pride in their own culture while gaining respect and appreciation for the art and customs of other cultures? Is imitation really flattery? Might there be more authentic ways to be creative while developing appreciation for the art forms and artworks of another culture? What does imitation teach about the role of artists? What should be the role of artists in today’s world? What is critical thinking in art? Shouldn’t we teach that artists interpret and create meaning rather than copy that which is already created?
