Purpose
The purpose of this project is to connect what students are learning in the
common curriculum about nature collections to art class. Students will learn
what a collection is and practice sorting and counting. Students will also
explore new methods of
Anticipatory Set
Part 1- We will look at art by Andy Goldsworthy and talk about what a
collection is. This will be in the form of a power point. We will talk about how
collections are made of multiple items and usually sorted and counted by the
owner.
Part 2- We will review what we talked about last class, such as what a
collection is. We will continue to look at artists if we did not look at all of
them the first time. We will do leaf prints this day.
Input
Part 1- Teacher will explain to students how and why they are doing texture
rubbings. Students will be learning about nature collections in their
classrooms. Teacher will explain how the texture rubbing centers will work
and how to change centers.
Explain the rubbing plate.
Directions/ Dialogue
7. Push the crayon straight down and pull it back and forth.
8. When you move your crayon back and forth, your objects will start to
appear!
9. Keep rubbing the crayon until youve discovered the whole object.
The plates will be at different stations at different tables. I will tell you when
to switch
Modeling
Part 1- Teacher will demonstrate how to do a rubbing for the students when
they are at the carpet. Teacher may also demonstrate how to switch centers
smoothly.
Part 2. Teacher will explain and demonstrate how to do leaf print when
explaining the steps.
Teacher will ask students if they have any questions before dismissing them
to their seats. Students will raise their hands if they have questions. Teacher
will answer questions if there are any and then tell students that if they have
a question while working they can raise their hands and either teacher will
assist them.
Guided practice
Teacher will circle the room as students are working and help them if needed.
Teacher will assist students with transitions from once texture center to
another.
Closure
Part 1- Students will be given an Andy Goldsworthy Challenge where they
will have to sort and count their objects in an Andy Goldsworthy style circle
or spiral. Students will work in groups of two to create their design. They will
construct their designs on boards. Students will be challenged to sort their
rocks or leaves by color. They will then have to decide which color they
would like to start with. For the center of their spiral or circle, they will have
to have 1 item, then for the first row, they will have to do 6 items. For the
next row, they will have to do 8 12 items. Then the row after that will have
to have 12-16 items. They will have to do at least 4 rows of items. All items
in all rows should be the same color. Students will have to sort and count
their rocks and problem solve to find out if they have enough rocks in each
color.
Students can continue this for the closure for part 2. If they finish after part
1, they may free draw.
Independent practice/Assessment
Assessment will be based on this 4 point scale.
4- I got it! I can teach texture rubbing and leaf printing to a friend and apply
it in new ways. I am focused.
Adaptations/differentiation
This kindergarten class has a large amount of ELL students and one student
who is both ELL and has a speech difficulty. Since all of the ELL students are
new, there is no paraprofessional in the room. There is also no ELL teacher at
Bryant this year.
There are two twins who speak either Mandarin or Cantonese. Both of these
girls are very good at mirroring and are placed at a desk where they have a
student willing to help show them what to do. They will benefit from the
demo and will receive extra attention.
There are two students who understand English fairly well but sometimes get
confused by directions. They generally do well with projects, but may need
an extra check just to make sure they understand directions.
The ELL student with a speech disability is currently undergoing evaluation
for additional services. He is typically walked through the project step by
step and is watched very closely. He will need to be checked on at every
station and will probably need hand over hand instruction at the first texture
station. When we print our leaves, he will also need extra direct instruction. I
may need to sit with him during guided practice to make sure he is doing
well until he is finished and then check on everyone else. I will have to at
least show him the first leaf print again and then watch him attempt to do
one.
