Shapes: Pablo Picasso
ACTFL Standards:
1.2 Communication: Students understand and interpret written and spoken language on a variety of topics.
3.1 Connections: Students reinforce and further their knowledge of other disciplines through the foreign language. (visual arts and mathematics)
4.1 Comparisons: Students demonstrate understanding of the nature of language through comparisons of the language studied and their own.
Objectives:
1. TSWBAT create a picture using two dimensional shapes.
2. TSWBAT to say the names of shapes in Spanish.
3. TSWBAT to describe a picture using shapes and colors in Spanish.
Context and Rationale:
The topic of shapes is very relevant to students at this age because they are learning different shapes in math and it also ties in with art concepts. This lesson will be done after learning the colors and alphabet so that they can also use colors they have learned when describing artwork. They will also look at different shapes of the letters of the alphabet to review from the first day.
Vocabulary:
~Shapes: Circle, Square, Triangle, Rectangle, Star, Heart, Diamond, Oval
Materials:
~Chicka Chicka Boom Boom by Bill Martin (in Spanish)
~Mural Artwork from previous lesson
~Shapes
~Book and Art Prints of Pablo Picasso
~Blue Construction Paper
~Pieces and scraps of other colors of construction paper
~Markers or Crayons
~I Can Do Statements
Pre-Activity: Learning Shapes (Standards: 1.2,4.1 Objectives: 2,3)
The teacher will go through all of the shapes with the students and they will refer back to their mural art and the Chicka Chicka Boom Boom book to find these shapes and to review colors and letters.
During Activities: Pablo Picasso Artwork (Standards: 1.2,3.1 Objective: 3)
After reviewing these concepts students will get to see art work for Pablo Picasso who was a cubist artist that used many shapes and colors in his artwork. They will describe his artwork using the shape that they have just learned in Spanish as well as the colors they learned yesterday.
Pablo Picasso Art (Standards: 1.2,3.1 Objective: 1)
Then the students will have chance to create their own Pablo Picasso’s using blue paper for the face and other colors of papers to make different shapes for the other features of the face. Students will then talk about the shapes and colors they used with their classmates.
Post-Activity: I Can Do Statements (Standard: 1.2 Objectives: 2,3)
At the end of the lesson for the today, students will receive a piece of paper with I can do statements that say:
~I can say the names of at least 5 shapes in Spanish.
~I can describe art using shapes and colors in Spanish.
All of these will have columns for fluidly with no help, with some help, and this is my goal. The teacher will collect these to get student feedback on what they need to work on for the next lesson. If some students finish early, they can look through the colored pencils to find the Spanish color name on them.
Assessment:
Students will be assessed throughout mainly on participation and effort to remember the names of the different shapes. Students will also be observed while they are creating their art project to see if they understand the directions. They will get the chance to describe their artwork to see how much they have retained.
Differentiation:
This lesson applies to multiple learners. There will be many visuals available for students while they are learning the shapes. Having the children find the different shapes in the artwork will help them practice on their orally skills. The art project will also help the students to be able to use movement to further develop these concepts.
