FINE ARTS – Week 1

INTRO

Explain to students that when you have something to say, you need to raise your hand and wait to be called on to speak.
Tell students we are going to practice answering questions by raising hands.

 Who loves to draw?!?!
 Can anyone be a skilled or become a famous artist?!?! - YES
 We learn to draw just like we learn to read, one step at a time. What else can we do to become a great artist?

PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE!!

1 Corinthians 12:12
“The human body has many parts, but the many parts make up one whole body. So it is with the body of Christ.”

Just like many small parts make up an entire person, many small parts make up a drawing.
Today we are going these parts: Five Elements of Shape.

ATTENDING
If you were in a CC before, who remembers the word we use to remember the 5 Elements of Shape? OiLS

Write OiLS on a white board and provide students a blank sheet of paper or a doc from CC Connected to practice
drawing the 5 elements of shape as you draw them on your white board.

Ask, “Who can tell me what element of shape the O stands for?” Now draw different types of circles on the white
board and explain while students practice drawing that element of shape on their piece of paper. Continue with each
element of shape.

 O= circles: enclosed shapes of only curved lines that are NOT colored in
 i= the dot represents dots: enclosed shapes of only curved lines that ARE colored in the line represents
straight lines
 L= angled lines
 S= curved lines that are not enclosed

NAMING
Ask students the questions on page 81 in the Foundations Guide while looking at their OiLS sheet

 What are the similarities between the elements of shape? To what degree?
 What are the differences between the elements of shape? To what degree?

ACTIVITY OPTION 1
If students have drawn the fish in the Foundations Guide on page 81 before, encourage them to compare their drawings
to see how much progress they have made!

 Draw the fish on page 81 in your Foundations Guide and explain the elements of shape as you draw while having
the students draw on their own sheet of paper.

 Explain during step 1 these shapes are GEOMENTRIC shapes which are more mathematical, straight edged, and
angled.

 Explain during step 2 that you are using those GEOMETRIC shapes to form your ORGANIC shapes which are
curvy, flowy, and more natural that will make the fish come to life.

 During step 4, I have the students add any element of shape(s) they want to the middle to decorate the fish.

ACTIVITY OPTION 2
https://www.insidethelineslessons.com/2016/08/09/cycle-2-week-1-rainforest-drawings/

This website has some great options for weeks 1-6 drawing that tie into the different cycles. She also provides variations
for different ages. She explains drawing so well!

EXPRESSING OPTIONS

Sandrahomemaker on CC Connected has a fun worksheet for students to find OiLS using famous art. Students could
color code the elements of shape they find using the Color Coding by OiLS chart below.

Have kids take turns pointing out or tracing OiLS in a famous art picture you bring to class.

Students could write their name and color code the elements of shape.

IF TIME ASK:

True/False questions - taken from Drawing with Children

 The ability to draw is inherited? False
Drawing is a teachable subject and artistic talent can be developed.

 There is a right and a wrong way to draw? False
It really boils down to personal opinion so listen to your own inner critic and draw for yourself instead of for
others.

 Drawing is simply for pleasure and has no practical use? False
It can improve hand-eye coordination; assists with science journals and geographical maps.

 Real artists draw from their imagination and don’t need to copy things? False
Picasso and Michelangelo both copied other artists’ work for at least 2 years as part of their initial art training.
