Teacher Activities
Introduction:
The teacher will start by initiating an
informal pre-assessment, asking if anyone
knows of a man named Michelangelo. S(he)
will take any responses, and allow 1-2
minutes for discussion.
The PowerPoint will be presented, stating
minimal (although useful) facts about
Michelangelo, as well as images of his
artwork, with the main focus on the Sistine
Chapel. The PowerPoint will be concluded
with a virtual tour of the Sistine Chapel to
redefine the students understanding of the
size, scale, and presentation of the real
painting.

Student Activities
The students will provide the teacher
with facts that they already know about
Michelangelo.

ARTE 342
Development:
Moving into the creation, the teacher will
show students how to trace their hands in
different orientations. It will be encouraged
to resemble the part of the Sistine Chapel,
The Creation of Adam, although, in the end
the composition is completely up to the
student. Once they have chosen a
composition, the teacher will instruct them
to trace it in marker and tape their paper
under their desk.
Paint will be passed out and the students
will be told to paint their final composition
just like Michelangelo did, by looking up
and painting above their head.
Conclusion:
The teacher will ask the students to take
their paintings out from under their desks,
very carefully, and show their classmates.
After 1-2 minutes of sharing, we will reflect
as a class and write down what we learned
over todays lesson.
Critical Comments and Reflections:
(Problems, successes, and what to think about for next lesson)

The students will practice their

compositions and choose their best one
for their final piece. After the students
have chosen a composition and have it
traced out in pencil, they will then trace
over the pencil with marker and tape
their paper underneath their desk.

The students will paint their final

composition, just like Michelangelo.

The students will proudly share their

pieces and when called on, write in
bullet point format what they learned
today.
