Class Name: Art
This week’s focus: Shape
In preparation for next Art Support Session (Oct. 6):
– Watch the Lesson 2 Video, which can be found at: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hRUoPdcxFq8&t=36s (all grades watch the same video this week)
– Do the Lesson 2 Warm-Ups: http://www.calgaryclassicalschole.ca/wp-content/uploads/gravity_forms/1-3e0c424b174623071e187e08ff5fe3d4/2020/09/Drawing-Warm-Ups-Lesson-2.pdf
– Begin Drawing Project #2 http://www.calgaryclassicalschole.ca/wp-content/uploads/gravity_forms/1-3e0c424b174623071e187e08ff5fe3d4/2020/09/Drawing-Project-2.pdf This drawing project was taken from the “Draw Write Now” series, and it guides students through the step-by-step process of breaking down subject matter into shapes and lines. Due to the wide range of ages and skill levels at Schole, some Grade 6 students may find this assignment a little too easy. Students wanting more of a challenge are invited to do art project for Grades 7-9 if that is preferable (found in the Resource Library).
Notes: Thank you for submitting Art Project #1 to Ms. Catherine. Kindly submit Art Project #2 by Friday, October 9.
Please contact Ms. Catherine with any questions, concerns, and student submissions at gchardy@telus.net
