Lesson Overview
A place to remember" introduces students to creating repousse using line, shape, pattern, and color with an architectural grounding. Students began by thinking about what makes a place "important" to their lives. Questions like "What are some places that are special to you?" and "What do you do in these places?" were some important questions to get ideas flowing. We looked at buildings like art museums, homes, monuments, and schools, from around the world. During this we discussed the idea of form versus the function of buildings. "What do you think this building holds?"
Students sketched plans for their place of importance on paper. They learned the process of creating lines, shapes, patterns, and textures on metal in relief to create repousse. The students finished by coloring their works with pens, and tempera paint, adding a unique patina to their completed works.
There were two types of assessment on this project, teacher centered and student centered.
The teacher centered assessment was a checklist of the project objectives...
Did the student plan their work with a sketch?
Did the student create using line, shape, and color?
Did the student identify form and function of world buildings?
Did the student complete the repoussé tile?
Did the student complete the 3-2-1 reflection sheet?
The student centered assessment piece was a 3-2-1 art reflection worksheet. Students assessed their leaning and outcome of their final project with three questions. The student reflection is completed upon finishing the project. Students filled out a reflection form, thinking about their learning.
