Big Idea: Movement

21st Century Art Education Approach:

Choice Based And Visual Thinking
Strategies (VTS)
 LESSON OVERVIEW
• From this lesson the students will have a discussion about
their reading. The students will analyze different images
involving movement and have a discussion about them. The
students will also be familiar with three different types of
movement and use them within their art.
 VOCAB
• 1. Visual Thinking Strategies: are a simple activity designed to build students 'background knowledge and develop
thinking skills to use detail to enhance understanding.

• 2. Choice-based learning: is a process in which learners have a greater sense of control over the way their interests,
backgrounds, and preferences work together to enhance their learning and determine how they interact with
educational content.

• 3. Visual Movement: is used to guide the viewer throughout the piece.

• 4. Social Justice: justice in terms of the distribution of wealth, opportunities, and privileges within a society.

• 5. Ephemeral: lasting for a very short time.

• 6. Movement:

a) An art of changing physical location or position or of having this changed.

b) A group of people working together to advance their shared political, social, or artistic ideas.

c) A tendency or style in art with a specific common goal followed by a group of artists during a restricted period of time
 TYPES OF MOVEMENT

• Visual
• Physical

LESSON OBJECTIVES
(TSW)…
• Literacy: be able to read the provided
text and discuss in depth their findings
from within the text.
• Visual Art: be able to analyze multiple
images while describing how movement is
relevant within the given images.
• History: be able to recall social justice
issues within history and use them in their
art.
ASSESSMENT:
• The teachers will assess the literacy of
the students by having them partake in
an open discussion about the text and
refer to specific aspects within it to
support their reasoning.
• The teachers will assess visual art and
history by having the students
demonstrate their understanding of
movement within both of these content
areas when using them within their art
to alter their original image.

 STUDIO INVESTIGATION:
• Students will bring in an image displaying movement they will then alter it
using a different type of movement learned from the prior lesson.

• Students will use transparency paper to alter the image so the art is
interactive.

• Students can use clay, paint, tissue paper, etc. to alter their image
