ART II

** The student is expected to compare and contrast the use of art elements and principles, using vocabulary accurately.

**Produce drawings, paintings, prints, sculptures, ceramics, fiber  art, photographic imagery, and electronic media-generated art, using a variety of art materials and tools in traditional and experimental ways.

 

Lesson Plan: Linoleum  Printmaking Stamps

 

Expected Duration:

 10+ class periods

 

Principles & Elements of Art: Pattern, Repetition, Rhythm

 

Vocabulary Words:

pattern, repetition, regular planned pattern &  irregular pattern, drop pattern & radial pattern, motif, printmaking, brayer &  linoleum, positive & negative shapes, contrast, rhythm.

 

Lesson Objective(s): (What is it we expect our students to learn?)

Students will be introduced to the Principle of PATTERN in printmaking. And the positive/negative space.

 

STUDENTS WILL:

 Be introduced to printmaking as an art form (historical).

Be introduced to printmaking as a skill to be learned (perception).

Design their own personalized rubber stamp (creative expression).

Print their stamps with printing ink/paint on paper (creative expression).

Create patterns with their stamps (perception).

 

 

 

 

Instructional Strategies/Activities:

Students will identify positive and negative space. Students will observe how the stamp is a mirrored image of the stamp.

 

Students will create rough drafts of personalized printmaking design stamps. Then, students will handle the end of a linoleum cutter and cut into the linoleum their designs.

 

Students will practice stamping with their printmade stamps on paper.

 

Students will create a planned design on their paper either symmetrical or assymetrical.

 

Evaluation of Student Learning:

 Review the student work and judge on these questions:

 

 1.Was the student successful in creating a rubber stamp?

2.Did the student identify the vocabulary?

3.Did the student create new patterns?

4.Did the student understand the Principles of pattern, rhythm & contrast?

5.Was the composition neat and well executed?

6.Color schemes used?

7.Did the student make good use of their time?
