Pre-Students were asked to make
four specific lines with pencil on
paper (straight, curve, zig-zag,
and loop) and then paint those
lines using the appropriate
technique with watercolor
paint. Students finished their
skill practice by gluing a yarn
section to a pencil line and
cutting and gluing a solid
shape. This was an formative
assessment for 159 first and
second graders.
Post-Students were shown
examples and then asked to
use pencil on black paper and
draw a large image-object with
straight and curved lines with
few small details. Students
used glue to draw over their
pencil lines and then placed
toothpicks or yarn over the glue
and marks. Students could
decide where to place the
straight wooden toothpicks or
the flexible yarn. Students
practiced scissor safety when
cutting the yarn into shorter
sections for their images.
6. Pre: Score - 3 Students performed at expectations with
this assessment. Each of the pre and post projects were
completed in one class. I was assessing the student’s abilities
with tools and processes, listening skills, and fine motor skills.
My instruction maintained a workable pace as I assisted
diverse students.
Post: Score - 4 This project gave students choices and
the ability to demonstrate craftsmanship. Students articulated
straight and curved lines with the toothpicks and yarn, but also
experimented with both materials to create line with their
images. Improved precision and craftsmanship was evident in
the final works of art.
