Lesson Objective: SWBAT manipulate yarn and glue in order to create an animal on a flat surface.
Essential Skill to be Mastered: Create an image with yarn.
I Can Statement: I can correctly work with yarn and glue to create a picture of an animal using yarn and glue.
Teaching Strategy: When starting this project I have the students create a simple cartoon drawing of an animal, bird or fish. I do not tell them what they will do to the drawing until they are finished and then I show them good and bad examples of the finished project so they get a better understanding of their expectations. I model how to effectively transfer their design to the cardboard and how to glue the yarn showing them how much glue is needed and the length of the yarn. The SmartBoard is used when looking up cartoon animals on the internet to draw. Instructions are written on the front board as a reference for questions.
Materials:
Computer paper
Pencil
Cardboard
Yarn
Glue
Instructions:
1.
Draw an animal on the poster board. Draw just
the main shapes.
2.
Cut yarn into strips to fit into each shape on
the animal and glue them down.
3.
Make sure that each strand of yarn is right up
next to each other. There should be no gaps between the yarn.
4.
Cut yarn to fill the background.
5.
Students will be graded on how well they glue
the yarn down and whether or not there are gaps between the yarn strands.
