Description
Big Ideas, Essential Questions, Competencies, Vocabulary, etc...
If your head is spinning and you've no clue where to begin, then start right here. This is an original contemporary art curriculum for 6th, 7th, and 8th grades, following overall themes of modern/conceptual art connections, ancient world/contemporary connections, and reflection of self and conceptual art connections. This is a contemporary approach in art education.
This is an editable file, so you may adjust accordingly in Microsoft Word, with a PDF for your convenience as well. I have included big ideas with resources listed, ways to incorporate technology, suggested activities, and assessment options. If you follow this curriculum, your whole year will be planned for you. You may use your own creativity to guide the execution of your art activities! NOTE: these are not individual lesson plans; this curriculum includes all of the above sections formatted to guide you.
This curriculum incorporates literature, writing, science, history, and math connections.
Each grade level follows an overarching theme, as follows:
6 - Modern and Conceptual Art Connections
7 - Ancient World and Conceptual Art Connections
8 - Reflection of Self and Conceptual Art Connections
Included with each grade's curriculum are the (June 2014) National Art Education Standards. This alone is a handy reference tool for lesson planning.
Hyperlinks to external websites, online readings, online videos, and other resources are embedded in the file for you and your students' convenience.
Please check my store for additional resources. I appreciate your feedback!
