Let's Draw!

This week we are experimenting with drawing materials.

This practice will prepare us for our work in the drawing studio!

With a pencil...
You can create light and dark values. 

Value is the lightness or darkness of a color. 

You can create light and dark values by changing how hard you press on your pencil.

Blending and Layering: 

Making new colors in the drawing Studio

You can layer crayon by coloring one color over another lightly.

       

• Can you see where the colors overlap in layers to create new colors?
• Why do you think it is important to color lightly when layering?

Create your own drawing using the skills and tools we just learned about. 

Ask yourself these questions:

1. How did you use your pencil?  Did you press light or hard?

2. Did you layer crayons? Where? If you didn't, add one color on top of another to create layers.

3. Did you use the tip or the side of the markers?

Third Grade Greeting/Introduction:

Welcome to art class! We are going to have an exciting year together in art, full of discovery

and art making. We will draw, collage, paint sculpt and weave. We are going to continue to learn what it means to be an artist and how to work like an artist.

Every year we go over our class expectations. 

1. Take care of people

2. Take care of stuff

3. Behave like an artist 

This year we want you to work in a group to list the way we meet those expectations. 

For example How do we take care of people in the art room?

1. 

2. 

So now it is your turn to answer this question at your table. One person will write the answers. 

Share some of the answers.

Now let's move on to #2. How do we take care of stuff in the artroom?

For example, when we are done with a marker, we should place the cap back on till it snaps, so that the marker doesn't dry out.

Share.

Lastly, How do we behave like an artist?

One way that I show I am an artist is I think about what I'm going to make before I begin.

 I always start with an idea even though it may change along the way.

Share
