Art Mini Lesson
    (Identity)
   By: Justine Hoster
Objectives
 Students will be able to explore their identities through
  expressing themselves, while creating a self-portrait
  out of paper mache and paint.
 Students will be able to identify who they are as a
  person through prioritizing their likes and dislikes
  before starting their art project.
 Students will be able to create three-dimensional self-
  portraits while referring to artist, Marc Chagall’s “Me
  and My Village”.
Identity
Self-Portrait
 a person’s portrait or description of him or herself. In
  this case a self-portrait is a three dimensional model
  depicting characteristics of a persons interests.
Hook
 Read Thumbelina and define identity.

 Discuss artist Marc Chagall and his self portrait, “Me
  and My Village.”

 Writing workshop.
Instructional Input
 A self-portrait is a representation of an artist, which
  can be painted, photographed, drawn or sculpted by
  that very same artist. It is believed that artists created
  self-portraits of themselves since the earliest
  times, but it was not until the fifteenth century that we
  could recognize and document artists being the focal
  point or a main character in their work. This is
  because of the use or invention of mirrors in that time
  period.

 “Me and My Village was created in 1911
Guided Practice
 Students will create their own three dimensional self-
  portrait.

 Students will use their writing workshops to help create
  ideas as to what they would like in their self-portrait.

 The students will watch part one of the video in order to
  create their paper mache head, and will use the second
  part of the video in order to create the painted face.

 This will be a two day activity. The first part of the activity
  will take an hour and a half, and the second activity will
  take an hour.
Independent Practice
 Once the students finish their projects, they will allow
  them to dry overnight in the classroom.

 After they are fully dried the students will present their
  work to the class and explain why they did what they
  did.

 This exercise allows the students to see that everyone
  has their own identity and everyone is unique.
Closure
 Once the students are finished presenting their work I
  will give them all positive feedback and ask them what
  they learned through this activity.

 I will once again explain identity and have the students
  recall Marc Chagall and Thumbelina.
