High School s Unit: Hand building (Pinch, Coil, Slab, Extruder) Timeline: 9 weeks Grade Level Expectations (GLE) 1. Observe and Learn to Comprehend 1.1 Art has inherent characteristics and expressive features 1.2 Historical and cultural context are found in visual art 1.3 Art and design have purpose and function 2. Envision and Critique to Reflect 2.1 Reflective strategies are used to understand the creative process 2.2 A personal philosophy of art is accomplished through use of sophisticated language and studio art processes 2.3 Interpretation is a means for understanding and evaluating works of art 3. Invent and Discover to Create 3.1 Demonstrate competency in traditional and new art media, and apply appropriate and available technology to express ideas 3.2 Assess and produce art with various materials and methods 3.3 Make judgments from visual messages 4. Relate and Connect to Transfer 4.1 The work of art scholars impacts how art is viewed today 4.3 Art is a lifelong endeavor Inquiry Question(s): (From the standards document) What other ways are there to analyze and discuss works of art beyond the characteristics and expressive features of art and design? How does context affect works of art? How do different cultures manifest the purposes of art? When is art criticism vital, and when is it beside the point? How is art used in everyday life? How can an artist create works of art through combining, expanding, and sequencing? Why is one type of visual image or object considered to be more important than another? What constitutes art? According to whom? How do underlying structures unconsciously guide the creation of art works? How can information be shared artistically? What differentiates art-making technologies? How and why is art used as a vehicle for communication? To what extent does good design integrate form with function? Enduring Concept: Personal inquiry into artistic processes can lead to unforeseen, unpredictable, and original art forms.
