Art 1

In this course, sixth grade students will experience sequential learning activities in production, criticism, and aesthetics.  The students will explore a variety of art media to develop their creative and critical problem-solving skills through design problems and challenges.  Emphasis will be placed on the five elements of design.

Students will attend this course daily for nine weeks and be graded on a Pass/Fail basis.

Project Samples

Campbell Soup Can 
Students learned about the art and life of Andy Warhol.  Using a mixed media, glue and pastels they recreated his famous Campbell Soup Cans.

Shoe drawing
Students studied the element of line.  They created a contour line drawing of their shoe.  The students then arranged four rendering of the shoe into a square configuration. The pencil lines were outlined in black ink, giving a clean hard line.

 

Negative/Positive Design
Students studied the importance of negative and positive shape. The shape is called the positive area.  The empty spaces between the shapes are called negative spaces. The relationship between the positive and negative space will affect how art work is interpreted.
