Students will engage in a wire sculpture project while learning about the Artistic Process. All artists must learn to plan, make predictions, problem solve, and so much more. Working with wire provides flexibility, opportunities to design and problem solve, all while creating an original work of art. Students will utilize sketchbook planning, collecting ideas both online and using a graphic organizer. I will support learning needs with demonstrations, showing art exemplars from many sources, and by encouraging problem solving and utilizing peer mentors. This lesson will allow my students to show understanding of several learning targets.
