Video Learning Notes

In this lesson, students learn that artists draw ideas from many sources including what they see, imagine, experience, and the communities they belong to. They explore how the elements of art—line, shape, color, texture, form, space, and value—are tools to express these ideas visually. Through observation, creation, and reflection, students develop skills to create meaningful original artworks and communicate their artistic choices using accurate vocabulary.

Learning Goals

• Identify and illustrate ideas for artwork using direct observation, original sources, imagination, personal experiences, and community influences including family, school, cultural, local, and regional contexts.
• Compare and contrast the elements of art—line, shape, color, texture, form, space, and value—in their own artworks using accurate art vocabulary.
