ENDURING UNDERSTANDINGS
Personal Choice and Vision: Students construct and solve problems of personal relevance and interest when
expressing themselves through visual art.
PROGRESS POINTS
Draw on a variety of sources to generate, select and evaluate ideas to create personally meaningful products.
Central Focus (creating, presenting, interpreting, responding, and/or relating art to context)
This unit is based around the ability of the students to use the Color Wheel along with
techniques like tinting and shading to create visual effects with the paint. The students will be
tasked with memorizing the color wheel, creating paintings with different techniques, and
analyzing their artwork through self assessment.
Essential Questions (provocative, engaging, critical)
How often do we see tint and shade in our daily lives?
Is it important to have the ability to mix color?

Safety Procedures
By this age the students should know how to handle the materials safely. However, it’s always
good to remind them about not throwing brushes or splattering paint everywhere. Spilling water
should be addressed also. If they fill up their cups too much then they will end up spilling water
and possibly causing someone to slip.
LEARNING ACTIVITY
Getting the Classroom Environment Ready
The classroom is set up so that the students can work at tables with their peers around. There
are 4 tables for students to sit at. It’s important to have the materials ready for when the
students come in for class.
