Lesson on medieval time and Pattern

Students will design patterns and decorate a wood stick.

The focus of the lesson is the inductive model. The teacher will use these elements in the lesson to meet those students who are able to go on to more abstract concepts and express them in the project/enrichment activities.

GT: Advanced vocabulary can be used by those students who are advancing in certain areas of the content covered. The teacher will support these students during the independent work time of the lesson

*Teacher can show ESL students some pictures of patterns v.s. non patterns to help them get the idea of “pattern.”

Examples for Patterns:

lee_pattern1

lee_pattern2

lee_pattern3

Examples for Non-patterns:

lee_pattern4

lee_pattern5

lee_pattern6


STUDENT CREATED ANIMOTO OF CREATION OF ILLUMINATED LETTERS


ACCESS EXAMPLE/DETAIL OF ILLUMINATED LETTER

How will you address students’ various learning preferences in this lesson (visual, auditory, kinesthetic, tactile, other)?

Learning Preferences-

The lesson offers multiple opportunities for students to experience different styles of learning. Students will use visual and auditory viewing student created examples. Students will use verbal skills in the stages of the lesson when they are creating/answering questions with the teacher in grouping exercises. The students will use kinesthetic and tactile skills during the art history and lesson stages that manipulate medieval and Byzantine art student exemplars. The students will use visuals in the examples, class discussions, and the creation of drawings of their own illuminated letter for their portfolio. Auditory skills will be used throughout the lesson in their small-group work and in their discussions with the class. The student-driven collaboration of the lesson will support group focused students.

Assessments:

Prior Knowledge Assessments:

The teacher will assess students prior knowledge of informal methods during completion of advanced visual organizers. Additionally, the graphic organizers will be assigned grades based on a percentage of completion at the end of the lesson.
Formative Assessment Questions:

How would you classify all the figures and how they are used in these images?

How would you classify details of these images?

How would you define “pattern?”

Higher-level Questions:

What meaning do these figures, symbols, and details have?
How does your illustrated manuscript page demonstrate the use of symbols, meaning, and pattern?
Higher-level Questions based on the Costa’s Levels of Questioning Model:

Analyze the patterns of medieval art forms and categorize the various samples by their patterns. How would changing these patterns change the characteristics of the art? (Level 2- Processing)
Predict how this art form we have studies (Medieval art) will shape the future art forms we will go over in class. What influences with these patterns and styles have on the future of art history?
Compare and Contrast Medieval Art to a Previously Studied Art Form. What are the similarities and differences between them?
Analytic Rubric:

This summative rubric will be used to assess the students on their collaboration during the group work they participate in during the duration of the class activities. They will be rated on a scale of 4-1 where 4 is on target and 1 demonstrates a need for improvement.
