I like to start junior high art with a project that reviews the Elements of Design. The students will be designing an Elements of Design poster this week that list the elements, defines them, and then gives a visual description of each one. This is the video clip that they will need for this poster: EOD poster https://youtu.be/ut2EGQJy0gw We are working on one of our last project for this round of 8th graders. We started building our Pinch Pot Clay Turtle Bowls last week and will put them together this week. Once these are build, we will have some down time while they fire, during this time we will do a short Line Contour Portrait project. If everything goes well and the weather works in our favor, by the end of the week, our turtles will be fired and ready to glaze next week. |
