Paper

-
                              

Description- 
The topic of this project was paper. To begin you had to lay a tack paper down on your construction paper. Then I began sticking pieces of tissue paper down on the paper to create an underwater scene. I have to cover the entire piece of tack paper with the tissue paper to receive full points. Then I traced and cut out underwater creatures. It was required to have four small animals and one large animal evenly spaced out. Then when I was done I placed another sheet of tack paper on the top. I am happy with how my project turned out because I think it is very neatly put together.


Extension Activity- 
An extension activity could have the student do research on one of the animals they chose. While they collect research they could write a short write up about the animal. They could display their project with the paper and parents could know what they are doing in writing and art at once.

                                        Description - The topic of this project was printmaking and this was the lesson I taught. To begin this project the student colored in a circle from the inside out to create the background. Next they drew a design on a small piece of paper. Next they taped their paper to a small Styrofoam piece of paper and began to trace over it. Then they took off the paper and traced over their lines on the Styrofoam again. The students rolled paint over their Styrofoam and placed it on their paper. They rolled the back of the Styrofoam to transfer the paint. When they peeled back the Styrofoam the design was on their paper. They repeated the printing process three more times. Extension Activity-  An extension activity could be having the students share with a partner why they chose the design they did. Then explain to their partner how it shows rad...

Description - We did a scratch art project with a snowy theme. First we drew our project onto a piece of paper. I drew a snowman and some kids sledding in the back to show depth. Then, we traced our drawing onto the scratch art sheet. After that I took the paper off and drew directly onto the scratch art. Extension activity-  An extension activity for this project could be using these sheets to have the students do math problems. It would be a fun and engaging way for them to work on their math skills. It is different so the students would automatically be excited to use it.

Elements and Principles

Elements and Principles I chose this image I took when I was at home after a rain storm. This image represents space because when you look at the picture it seems like you can look far into the distance. The road gets smaller as you look further away. The trees in the distance are also smaller, which helps give the image depth. This picture I took of my grandpa's puppies shows unity because all of the puppies are close to each other and are the same breed, color and size.  This picture I took of the sunset over the lake shows value because there are many different shades of lightness and darkness. Next to the sunset the water is really orange and as it gets closer to the dock its much darker.  This picture I took of the adorable boys I nanny shows emphasis because when looking at this picture your eyes automatically go to the boys looking at the water in their bright shirts. They are also off centered which makes them stand out even more compare...
