Project Brainstorming: Getting Started

Part A: Select Student Learning Goals for Your Project
Your project should be focused on teaching students key knowledge and understanding derived from standards.

Content Areas & General Topics
Standards & Other Goals
Visual Art-Introduction to Cardboard/Sculpture/Architecture/Working in Three Dimensions
VA:Cr1.1.Ia I can use multiple approaches to planning a sculpture.
VA:Cr1.2.Ia I can create a sculpture that reflects the present and allows me to develop a personal vision
VA:Cr2.1.Ia I can be flexible and spontaneous in creating a sculpture.
VA:Cr2.2.Ia I can explain how traditional and non-traditional materials can be used in sculpture may impact human health and the environment.

VA:Cr2.3.Ia I can collaboratively develop a proposal for a sculpture that transforms the perception and experience of a particular place.
VA:Cr3.1.Ia I can give and receive criticism based on criteria to improve my sculpture and the sculptures of others.

Part B: Develop a Project Idea
Your project should have a real-world context connected to your students’ pathway.  It should be connected to students’ own concerns, interests and/or identities.

Project Idea:
Intro to Sculpture/Architecture/Cardboard...Students will work together to design & build an architectural model for a structure of their choice.

 Part C: Decide on Major Products
Your project should allow students to make some choices about the products they create, how they work and/or how they use their time.
