The outcomes of this lesson are important in the real world because it provides students with opportunities to learn words for colors,
shapes, and actions. The project strengthens critical thinking and problem solving skills that are carried into other parts of life when
making decisions and trying new things in the future.

4. Formative Assessment Criteria for Success: (How will you & your students know if they have
successfully met the outcomes? What specific criteria will be met in a successful product/process?
What does success on this lessons outcomes look like?)
Students will have met the outcomes when they can identify the complimentary colors using a color wheel and successfully create a
drawing that represents what they have learned. They must include two complimentary colors and at least one pattern using geometric
shapes from the previous math lesson (geometry) in their drawing.

This lesson is important because students will learn words

for describing art. The project will strengthen learning skills
that will be used in future classes and situations.

Students will be successful when they can use the color

wheel to identify complimentary colors.
Projects must include at least two complimentary colors
and at least one pattern using shapes from the geometry
lesson.

5. Activities/Tasks: (What learning experiences will students engage in? How will you use these learning experiences or their student products as formative
assessment opportunities?)
Throughout their projects, students will engage in visual learning that will allow them to criticize and interpret visual information. They will learn about design and
practice with concepts learned in their geometry lesson. They will also practice inventiveness in their work and consider the aesthetics of color and shape. They
will also distinguish between different art media and their textures. This project will serve as a formative assessment by being included in the students' online
portfolios to reflect on their progressive learning, and how it overlaps with other lessons. Students will also be able to comment on each others' work using the
