East Longmeadow Visual Art Department Lesson Plans
Corresponding with MA State Standards
| Mrs. Slate First and Second Grade Weaving | |
| Objective | Corresponding Standards |
| I can create a weaving using a wooden loom. I can tie a knot and weave using an AB pattern. I can identify the vocabulary of weaving tools and how to use a loom. I can use my knowledge of weaving to use the large classroom loom to create a group made rug. | Generate and conceptualize artistic ideas and work. Use a wide variety of two- and three-dimensional media that communicate a teacher directed idea after looking at images made by artists who use similar materials. (e.g., students use repurposed materials to create a musical instrument or make a collage). (1-2.V.Cr.01)Synthesize and relate knowledge and personal experiences to make art. Make connections between personal experience and an artwork to use as inspiration for their work. (1-2.V.Co.10) |
| Steps | Day 1Students will watch a presentation on weaving. Students will use lace cards from K teachers to practice over/under AB patterns required for weaving.Day 2-53)Students will watch Mrs. Slates private Youtube tutorials on how to thread a needle, tie a knot, and weave.4) Students will learn how to weave in an AB pattern to create a small weaving to take home. |
| Assessment | Informal standard/objective checklist |
| Hallway Exhibition | Students will exhibit one project per year in the hallway |
| Differentiation | -Some students will need extra time-Some students need help understanding over under AB patterns, how to thread a needle and tie a knot, and will need one on one demonstration and help every day |
| Notes/reflections | Will use this for first and second, too challenging for younger. I may want to try this later in the year next time. |
