Teachers: Ms. Vetter Date of Lesson: N/A

Subject(s): Computer Science & Art Lesson duration: 1 Hour

Featured Artworks:

Learning goals:

Students will be able to make two things do something at once on Scratch while creating some of Mondrian’s work. IM GOING FIRST

Learning Objective(s):

– Students will create parallelism using Scratch.

– Students will make a car horn go off when a block appears.

Prior Knowledge Resources:

– Students can navigate basic functions on a computer.

– Students will be familiar with Scratch.

– Students will have already had some art instruction before.

– Students will know how to apply VTS

Materials:

– Computer

– Projector

– Internet

– Scratch account (already created)

– Piet Mondrian Biography

– Images of Piet Mondrian’s Ohne Titel art

– Teachers notes on the scratch project

Lesson Progression:

Duration:	The Teacher will…	The Students will…
0:00-15:00	Do a quick overview of scratch. Then introduce the new artist (Piet Mondrian) and discuss the picture of his artwork.	Discuss about what they remember from scratch. Listen and ask questions about Piet Mondrian and apply VTS when discussing his art work.
15:00-25:00	Have the students get their computers, log into scratch, and create a new project. Then explain the goal for this assignment and what techniques they will be using on scratch to create their new art work. Display her new scratch on the projector.	Get computers and log into scratch. Then create a new project and wait for further directions. Listen to what the goal of the assignment is, what techniques they are using and ask any questions they might have before starting.
25:00-55:00	Work step by step following the scratch notes. Pausing in between steps to allow students to catch up.	Watch what the teacher does on the projector and completing each step along with her. Raise their hand if they have questions
55:00-60:00	Instruct the students to log off of scratch, shut down their computers and put them away. Then show students finished art work and giving praise for all their hard work.	Log off of scratch, shut down their computers and put them away. View their classmate’s art work and be proud of what they have made.

Grading Criteria:

Demonstrates effective use of “sound” features and parallelism.
Demonstrates an effort to create similar to Mondrian’s work.

Create Original Project (6)

osparks on June 6, 2018June 6, 2018

In this lesson, each teacher created individual artifacts

Teacher(s):

Bailey Hucke, Olivia Sparks, Brandi Paquette, Shania Vetter, and Hannah Moyer

Lesson Duration: 1 Hour

Grade: 3rd

Subject(s): Computer Science & Art

Learning Goal:

Students will incorporate art concepts from De Stijl movement with computer science concepts/skills learned.

Learning Objective(s):

Students will use variable, sequencing, parallelism, algorithms, loops, events, and conditionals in their final Scratch.
By the end of this lesson, students 1 Scratch project.

Prior Knowledge Resources:

Students can navigate basic functions on a computer.
Students will have had some art instruction before.
Students will be familiar with “Scratch” in an introductory/beginner manner.
VTS (Visual Thinking Skills) will be already scaffolded and practiced.

Materials:

Computer
Internet
Projector
Scratch Account (already created from past experience)
Scratch Project Teacher Notes (included at bottom of lesson plan)

Lesson Progression: Describing in detail what will happen during the lesson. Specifying what the teacher will actually do/say and what the students are expected to do/say.

Duration:	The Teacher will…	The students will…
0:00-5:00	Review the powerpoint containing pictures and information on each of the De Stijl artists.	Listen and observe the powerpoint.
5:00- 7:00	Transition into students getting their computers and logging into scratch. Walk around class to help with computer/logging in issues. Have them create a new project that can be publicly viewed. When students get logged into scratch, have them open a new tab and show them your Scratch project.	Students will got out their computers and follow the directions logging in and setting up a new project.
7:00 – 12:00	Review previous concepts from the lessons (sequencing, events, loops, conditionals, parallelism, and variables). Answer any questions students may have about these concepts and how to use them in scratch.	Students will recall the past scratch instructions and concepts learned. They will ask questions about any concepts they are confused about.
12:00 – 55:00	Instruct students to create their own scratch incorporating sequencing, events, loops, conditionals, parallelism, and variables. Students can create a new project, or continue building off of a previously taught one.	Students will create or enhance their own original scratch project incorporating sequencing, events, loops, conditionals, parallelism, and variables. This project will be inspired by the De Stijl movement and artists previously learned about.
55:00-60:00	Instruct students to share out their scratch projects and ideas with peers. Walk through the room and observe and comment on students projects.	Students will observe each other’s projects and share their own with peers.

Standards Addressed:

Computer Science: 1B-A-5-5 “Construct programs, in order to solve a problem or for creative expression, that include sequencing, events, loops, conditionals, parallelism, and variables, using a block-based visual programming language or text-based language, both independently and collaboratively (e.g., pair programming).”
Art Education: MA.5.PR2.3 “Exhibit standard use of tools and techniques while constructing media artworks.”
