Part One of Four. Are you a teenage mutant ninja turtle fan? Do you love protecting New York city and training with Splinter? Do you love pizza? I do too. But who were these turtles named after? We all know Leo, Mikey, Donnie, and Ralph but do you remember their full names? Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello, and Raphael? Our turtle heroes are named after renaissance heroes. Are you ready to learn more about the men our heroes are named after? Let's see if they share any similarities other than the name? Using lecture and discussion students will learn about the Ninja Turtle Leonardo and the Renaissance hero he was named after. Students will see artwork by Leonardo da Vinci, learn from first-hand accounts about the artist, discuss personality similarities and differences while seeing works of art from this historic period of time. I try to make history come alive using visual images and discussion. If students can find a connection they are passionate about we can learn together. I encourage students to teach me about our turtle friends while I teach them about artists. Together we find similarities between them.
Learning Goals
Students will learn about artist Leonardo da Vinci. We will learn from first-hand accounts and history texts about the type of man he was, the artwork he created, and his influence on history.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
Art has always been focused on the human figure. Though this will no be our primary focus there will be art works that show nudity including Michelangelo's David, and his Creation of Adam.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Teacher expertise and credentials
This is part of a lecture series I give to my college students in art history II. Using a modern-day connection helps students think about the connections between character and artist creating more interest and ability to remember long term.
