Overview: (A brief
description of your instructional plan) This
lesson is designed to engage the student in an analysis of the
"portrait" as a window into history. It is a unit lesson presented in
a studio class. The time span is three weeks.
Group
discussions and observations will focus on content (the social, economic and
political influences), style, and materials used in different time periods.
Students will
be engaged in observation, discovery, inference, and reflection.
The student
will produce a self-portrait in three sections, incorporating the style of an
artist from 1800-1850, 1950-2000, and
in their own style for 2001.
Keywords: (Key words are search terms that enable other teachers to
locate your plan on the Web.) Portrait,
Painting, Collage, Sculpture, Soft Sculpture, Pennsylvania Realism, Abstract
Expressionism, Pop Art, Modern Art, Early American Art.
Learning Objective(s): (What
will students know and be able to do to demonstrate that they have reached the
standard? List student competencies in clear, measurable terms.)
-The student

with those of the 1950's-2000.
-The student
will be able to identify historical details of objects, clothing, style, and
medium of the portrait for a fact sheet.
Assessment-Task
and Criteria: What is the student performance
that demonstrates they have met each objective? Include actual assessment and scoring tool(s). How will you judge “below basic,” “basic,”
“proficient” and “advanced”? Do you
have a model/exemplar of your expectations?)
