Upper Grades Visual Art Lessons

Symmetry Activities

5/19/2020

 
Hi Art Scholars,
         I have an exciting lesson brought to you by Ms. Belot from Heritage & Juarez-Lincoln. After you watch the video there's a Symmetry Scavenger Hunt and an activity about positive and negative space.  Check out this video on Symmetry from Free School: https://youtu.be/YFzktJNmnPU
Now try to complete a Symmetry Scavenger Hunt around your house. Look for items around your house with lines of symmetry. Draw a sketch or describe your favorite symmetrical object and ask a family member to guess what it is! If you need help thinking of lines of symmetry, check out the next page for a Lines of Symmetry Bingo.

Or using scissors and colored paper you can create this positive and negative space art work.  This lesson is from Ms. Westfall.

Happy Wednesday Art Scholars!
        I have a fun drawing activity for you to draw.  Please check out the video from Art for kids Hub on YouTube.

Hey Art Scholars,
Check out Ms. Belot's lesson for you about Antoni Gaudi.
You will need a thin book and some foldable paper (can be recycled or new).
First check out this Mati and Dada art video below about Antoni Gaudi:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9u7nkjFOyM
Now look at the instructions below to complete the project.  Please have your parents help take a picture and send it to your teacher or upload it to twitter and tag @CVESD_VAPA.
Have an Artful Day,
​Ms. Rees

Art History Activity - Antoni Gaudi

Lesson By: Erica Belot at Heritage/ Juarez-Lincoln
Please watch the Mati and Dada YouTube video about Antoni Gaudi below (8 minutes long)
Https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9u7nkjFOy

​For your Art response: 
 
Gaudi shows how to create a structure just using 2 pieces of paper and a book. Students and families can try this using either copy paper or cardboard. I used copy paper and a paperback book and folded the papers into thirds. I would try this with folding since copy paper won't curve well. You could also experiment with a magazine or binder on top.   When you have completed the challenge, please take a picture and share it on Twitter with @CVESD_VAPA

Visual Art Lesson 1

    ART

    Art gives children an outlet to express themselves and an activity in which they can create things that they are proud of. When children create and share their art, they develop self-esteem from experiencing opportunities to make something unique, expressing their feelings and imagination, and receiving praise and critique from those around them.
