KCC Art 141 Chapter 2 Curriculum And Lesson Planning
1. Chapter 2 Curriculum Components and Identifying Student Art Progress
2. Stages of Artistic Development Developmental Stages in Children's Art Children all pass through the same stages of their development, but the pace of their development varies. The stages vary from child to child, however, are clearly seen with daily drawings that are kept and studied. Movement towards complexity takes the form of small changes rather than giant leaps. The scribbling stage : 2 - 4 Years The pre schematic stage: 4 - 7 Years The schematic stage: 7 - 9 Years The preteen stage: 9 - 11 Years The age of reasoning: 11 -13 Years The crises of adolescence: after 13 Years
3. Scribble to Mature Realism: SCRIBBLE Typically, children are about 18 months to 3 years old when they are at this stage of development. Children make random scribbles and explore materials in a playful way. At first the scribbles are uncontrolled and then progressively become controlled. Children are experimenting with holding a pencil (left or right handed). The drawer discovers and points to a familiar object found in the random scribble. This is called named scribble. Children are learning to talk about marks, color, etc.

6. PRETEEN STAGE Ages 9 to 11 years old. - Incorporate more detail in drawings. - Want images to be very realistic and become frustrated if this cannot be achieved. - The "I can't draw" syndrome typically starts to emerge at this stage. - Use of perspective in space is developing.
7. The most obvious reason children draw is for the shear pleasure of it. How many times have we witnessed a small child completely engaged in their drawing and humming a joyful tune? We can probably remember our own spontaneous experiences as being pleasurable ones. Spontaneous is used to define a type of drawing that is free and without rules or limitations for the drawer. Spontaneous drawings encourage children to explore and experiment with their own thoughts and ideas while leaving a record of these on paper. This type of spontaneous drawing should be nurtured at all times. Children interact with their world and often use drawing as the medium to describe their experiences. Children's literacy skills are still developing - drawing allows them the means to communicate complex thoughts. Children's drawings tell us what they think and feel. Drawing empowers children to experiment and practice various drawing techniques and processes. This, of course, can be achieved through school art. A school drawing program teaches children to observe, create, express, and experiment with the principles and elements of drawing. School art will teach children the tools that are used for drawing. Drawing allows the child to invent. In their drawings children create objects, characters, and worlds that erupt from the child's imagination. These drawings are essential and help children develop a sense of self, what they like and dislike.

30. Vocabulary: Any new words the students can learn Art History: A brief paragraph on how the lesson relates back to art Steps: 1. Steps for the lesson go here. 2. Include prompting questions, for example: - Look at the colors in this work of art. Which one did you see first? Was color the first thing that you noticed? What else caught your eye? - Take turns describing the lines and shapes that you see in this work of art. (For example, “I see a thin curving line.”) - Do you see movement in this work of art or does it seem still? Do the colors, lines, and shapes make it seem that way? How? - Is there a story in this work of art? How do the colors help to tell this story? - If you see a story, who or what do you think is the most important figure, shape, or object? What makes you think this? - Does anything you see happening in this work of art remind you of your life story, or of another story you know? 3. Tie the art-making activity back into the Learning Objectives for the lesson. Try not to tag an unrelated art-making activity at the end of the lesson. Think about how the skills students learn by doing an art activity carry over to the other skills you are teaching in the lesson. 4. Steps
31. Extensions: Using what the students learned in another way. How will this be used again or in connection with another lesson? Assessment: Review of objectives (testing), did students learn the objectives? How will you assess/measure student outcomes? Closure: Wrap up of the class – what happens next? Remember to write your lesson plan as if you have a substitute for the day and she knows nothing about teaching!!
