ENDURING UNDERSTANDINGS
● Personal Choice and Vision: Students construct and solve problems of personal relevance
and interest when expressing themselves through visual art.
● 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. Identify and apply universal themes and processes to communicate meanings, moods and
visual effects in personal and collaborative artworks
Students at this age are very in tune with technology, especially viral videos and vines. Bill
Wurtz is an artist that makes ironic and offbeat video clips that have been immensely successful
on both Youtube and Vine. He references many aspects of internet culture, and his random sense
of humor meshes with younger audiences. It is likely that students have previously viewed his
content or similar content, and by exploring Bill Wurtz as and artist and content creator, students
will be able to understand and have a newfound appreciation for how art and visual culture
influence their day to day lives on the internet.
1
Central Focus (creating, presenting, interpreting, responding, and/or relating art to context)
Students will be relating Vines and Youtube videos created by artist Bill Wurtz to the elements
of Pop Art through creating their own font based collages.
Why do you think the artist uses words and different fonts in his videos?
Why might someone consider vines and Youtube videos art? What do you think?
Possible Integration
I could collaborate with a history teacher as well as a science teacher and explore the videos
“history of japan” and “history of the world i guess” with students to create more entertaining
connection to course material. These videos would have to be censored.
Lesson Two
Title Collage like Bill Wurtz!
Lesson Description Students will take the teacher’s feedback on their brainstorming worksheets
into consideration when beginning their artmaking. Students will have
choice in materials, fonts, and stories while creating, and fill out a
selfcheck progress rubric half way through the class period. Students will
observe hot glue demonstrations.
Lesson Three
Title Critique and Reflect
Lesson Description Upon finishing up their collages, students will break into groups of four in
order to discuss their art pieces in a small group setting. Students will have
prompted questions to answer about their piece to their peers. The class
will then return to large group where I will ask the groups about the stories
shared.
2
Explain how technology has been used in this unit
Technology will be used by students to research, experiment with, and print off their choices of
font for their stories. Students will have access to Chromebooks as well as a printer during their
artmaking.

LEARNING ACTIVITY
Getting the Classroom Environment Ready
Upon entering the classroom, I will instruct students to keep Chromebooks at their desks, but to
keep them closed. The cart will have the worksheets for the students in their class box.
Worksheets will be passed out to the students. I will ask the homeroom teacher for access to the

ask them to read the questions on their piece of paper, so they will be prepared to write down the
answers. I will begin the presentation. (5 minutes)
Procedures for the Teaching/Learning Structure (indicate approximate time for each step)
I will introduce myself and begin presentation. I will show the 10 min
5
students 5 Bill Wurtz videos and go through the first few slides.
I will have student look over the first two questions on their 4 min
worksheets and answer them.
I will have students talk to their partner and share their answers to 4 min
question 2.
I will prompt students with questions about pop art and how Bill 5 min

N/A
1. Students will select and use multiple mediums in order to communicate a story in their
collage.
2. Students will utilize multiple elements of art and design to communicate the theme and
mood of their story.

Performance-based Assessment Strategies
(attach assessment documents if applicable)
1. I will utilize the rubric I provided to assess that 3 mediums have been used.
2. I will view the art informally throughout the class to assess and prompt student about the
inclusion of the elements of design. I will formally assess the presence of at least 2
elements after the project is finished using the provided rubric
3. I will assess and provide feedback on the effective use of fonts after viewing the
Brainstorming worksheet as the students begin their artmaking. I will also summatively
assess this via the rubric.

carry sketchbooks with them, and often create art outside of class time. I will encourage these
students to go deeper into their critiques and give them additional critique prompts to accomplish
this.
