ENDURING UNDERSTANDINGS
Critical and Creative Thinking: Students combine and apply artistic and reasoning skills to
imagine, create, realize and refine artworks in conventional and innovative ways.
PROGRESS POINTS
B. Draw on a variety of sources to generate, select and evaluate ideas to create personally
meaningful products.
E. Apply reasoning skills to communicate key ideas expressed in their artworks and the works of
others and use appropriate criteria and language to critique the works.
Possible Integration
This could possibly be integrated into an English class where the students could write a short
story about the image they are altering and the new meaning that the will be creating. This
would allow them to give the image context.
Lesson
Two
Title Painting
Lesson The second lesson will consist of painting their images. They will glue their
Description image onto a piece of matboard so that the paper has enough support to hold
up the paint that they put onto it and so that it doesn’t warp. They will use
acrylic paint to alter the image that they choose in the previous class. Their
painting will need to cover roughly 50% of the preexisting image. They will use
their sketches as a reference if needed.
Lesson
Three
Title Critique
Lesson The last lesson will be used as a day of reflection and review of the project. To
Description begin, we will have a critique. Students will each receive one critique
worksheet. They will use one critique worksheet per painting, so they will be
critiquing one other student’s artworks. They will each use Barrett’s method of
art criticism to examine and evaluate their peers artwork. They will also write
one thing that they think is successful, and one thing that they think could be
improved on their peer’s painting. After this, the students will write an artist
statement describing and reflecting on their piece. I will have a handout for
them so that they know exactly what information I am looking for in their artist
statement.

Academic Language
Vocabulary
Alter: to change
Meaning: perceived concept or interpretation
Interpret: to explain the meaning
Artist Statement: a written description of one’s work
Critique: to examine and review
Art Criticism: a discussion or evaluation of an artwork
Describe: to explain
Analyze: to examine
Evaluate: to judge
Appropriation: a form of artmaking where the artist changes someone else’s art in that of their

Preparations
Materials/Resources for Teacher
24 8.5x11 printed images from National Geographic
24 pieces of 8.5x11 paper
24 art criticism worksheets
PowerPoint presentation
Teacher example
Matboard
Glue
Scissors
Safety Procedures
I will tell the students to be careful not to spill any water near the sinks as to avoid slipping. If
there are multiple students at the sinks at one time they will need to form a line and not all
rush in at once to avoid spills and slips. Students will also be required to sit in their assigned
seats as to avoid problematic situations between students such as arguments and fighting.
LEARNING ACTIVITY
Getting the Classroom Environment Ready
For the first lesson, I will have the images printed off and ready to go when the students come
in the classroom. They will be in stacks on the table at the front of the room. I will also have a
stack of 8.5x11 paper on the front table as well for sketching. Additionally, I will have the art
criticism worksheets on the front table. I will have matboard, glue, and scissors on the front
table as well. When students come in the room, I will instruct them to sit at their seats and
wait for the rest of the class to come in. I will have a PowerPoint ready to show the students
to introduce the project. The first slide of the PowerPoint will also have instructions to take an
image, sheet of paper, and art criticism worksheet off of the front table. I will have this on the
screen when the students come in so they know to get their materials without me telling them
all. I will have an example ready on the front table to show the students as well.
Procedures for the Teaching/Learning Structure (indicate approximate time for each step)
Supplemental Activity
If students finish their work early they can use this time to practice altering meaning of a
visual image by creating a second alteration for their image of choice.

Students will explain why and how they plan to use acrylic paint to alter their image when I go
around to each table to help students complete their paintings.

LEARNING ACTIVITY
Getting the Classroom Environment Ready
For the second lesson, I will prepare the classroom by getting out paint brushes and paints for
the students. Students already have their own pallet of acrylic paint and just need extra paint
on the front table for when they run out. I will also get out water cups and place them on the
front table for students to take as they need them. I will begin by passing back student’s
sketches and art criticism worksheets from last class so they can refer to them for their
painting and also take into account my comments that I left on their papers. I will also put
matboard, glue, and scissors on the front table so that students that didn’t have time to glue
their images to matboard in the last class can do that today.

LEARNING ACTIVITY
Getting the Classroom Environment Ready
For this lesson, I will pass out critique worksheets to each table for each student to take one. I
will also pass out Artist Statement prompt worksheets for each student. I will instruct how the
critique will work and also how to fill out the artist statement prompt worksheet. At the end of
class, they will turn in their painting with both critique worksheets from their peers, as well as
their artist statement.

Supplemental Activity
If students finish their work early they will be able to use another critique worksheet to critique
an additional students artwork. We will also have a gallery walk around the room so that the
students can see everyone else's artwork.
