Czaplicki 6th Grade Art 10/2/201

Ms Czaplicki's 6th graders these past two days got to pratice blind contour drawing for their sketchbook. This is an exercise to get students to LOOK at what the subject they are drawing, not at their drawing, Looking at our subject ensures that we draw what we see, not what we THINK it looks like.

Then we began to build our armatures for our masks that we will be making based off of a fear that we have. We spent last class discussing fear. We asked some questions with not so simple answers: Is fear a good or bad thing? Why? Do different cultures have different fears? Why? How do we react when we will fear? What are common fear? Why do we think those are common fears?

We worked in teams of two! Two heads are better then one!

I am really excited to see how they turn out. Their brainstorming sketches look awesome!
