Hora de arte: "Piensa fuera de la caja" para crear un dibujo único - ¡Parte 1!

*This is part 1 of this course!  The concept is the exact same for each class, however the assignments/drawings each week will be different.  You can take this class in any order you wish!**
------

In this four week flex class, students will have the opportunity to let their imaginations soar while creating pieces of art that are unique and creative!  

Each week, I will post a learning video of a picture that is already started.  I will encourage myself (as I model) to use higher order thinking skills to take a closer look at the picture to finish it.  I will also tell students, whatever the teacher creates is a unique piece of art, meaning no one else can copy my idea.  Students will then be assigned the same incomplete drawing for them to complete on their own for their weekly assignment. 

An example of an incomplete drawing could be: a picture that looks like half of a cloud, however, the directions for each student assignment will clearly state that students will need to "think outside of the box" and create a UNIQUE picture and NOT a cloud. Each week students will receive a different incomplete picture to complete.

Each week will consist of an incomplete drawing/shape.  Students will watch my learning video as I model using higher order thinking skills to transform it into something different.  Students will be assigned the same incomplete drawing/shape and be required to transform it into something different, and can not be a replica of the example used in the learning video.  As interaction is required each week, students have multiple options in order to do so.  Please see the three options below on how to best participate in this class. 

-Students can upload their work and write a story about it, and then comment on another student's work.

-Students can create a video explaining their unique piece of art, and then comment on another student's work.

The purpose of this course is to strengthen flexible thinking skills, teach kids to look at things from a different perspective, help them develop an appreciation for the work of others, and allow them to see how unique and creative they are n their own way--all while having fun!
