describing how this is accomplished in your lesson.
1.13 Students make sense of ideas and communicate ideas with the visual arts
2.22 Students create works of art and make presentations to convey a point of view.
Students will show how they know what Pop Art is through making a Pop Art piece
themselves. Through making the piece, student will be able to make sense of what Pop Art is
and will be able to communicate what it is to the viewers of their piece.
C. Describe students prior knowledge or the focus of the previous learning.
Students prior learned about what Impressionism is and the artists that where around that
period of time.
D. Describe the characteristics of your students who will require differentiated instruction to
meet their diverse needs impacting instructional planning in this lesson.
I do not have any students who will require any differentiated instruction; however I will
incorporate various learning styles for the students so that the each can learn the best way.

Assessment Accommodations:
Activity Accommodations:

E. Opening:
What about Pop Art? Can anyone tell about what Pop Art consists of?
34
35
What worked well in this lesson was giving the students a chance to see what Pop Art
looked before just starting the project. What also worked was that they could choose how
to complete the piece so long as they incorporated their word/words in the piece. They
were also free to choose what colored medium to use for their piece. Giving the students
a chance to pick what they want in a project, even if it is just one or two choices, really
allows the students a chance to have a say in what they do as an assessment and many
times student will react positively to this, as in this lesson.
3. What did not work well in your lesson? Why?
What did not work well was some of the word choices were a little too hard to for student
to try and make into a Pop Art piece so at first those students got frustrated and some did
not try as much as they could have on this project.
4. What changes in the delivery of your planned lesson did you have to while you were
teaching due to student needs, understanding or behavior? How did these changes impact
student learning?
No changes to my delivery had to be made.
5. Describe how you gave instructional feedback to the students.
The way I gave feedback is one on one discussion on their Pop Art piece. At the end of
the project, I would conference with each student and giving positive critiquing over the
work they had done.
INSTRUCTIONAL REFINEMENT
1. What changes would you make before you taught this lesson again?
The changes I would make before I taught this lesson again would be make sure that the
students are comfortable with all the words we would be turning into Pop Art pieces
beforehand. By doing this, those students who might find making their piece too hard
because of the word they have will not have this problem.
2. How would you reteach your objective(s) if students did not make satisfactory progress?
The way I would reteach my objectives would be to go step-by-step on how to make a
Pop Art Piece and reevaluate on what Pop Art is and the artists best known for making
Pop Art.
3. How could you alter your classroom management choices to make this lesson better?
The way I could alter my classroom management choices is by having a new seating
chart. This would stop students from distracting each other and they can focus better on
the task at hand.
36
Explain the meanings of Fauves and Cubism. What artists are connected with these
words?
B. Connect the objective to the state curriculum documents, i.e., Kentucky Core Academic
Standards OR Program of Studies/Core Content. Follow each connection with a sentence
describing how this is accomplished in your lesson.
2.24 Students have knowledge of major works of art, music, and literature and appreciate
creativity and the contributions of the arts and humanities.
Students will be learning about major artists and pieces of art that was made during the
Modern and Contemporary through a lecture style assessment. They will be given a lecture
and later be assessed on the words to see if they were able to gain the knowledge on the
topics given. This is how they will show that they have knowledge of major works of art
C. Describe students prior knowledge or the focus of the previous learning.
The students previous focus prior to this lesson was over making a Pop Art piece. The
previous lesson connects with this lesson because Pop Art was part of the Modern Art
Movement.
D. Describe the characteristics of your students who will require differentiated instruction to
meet their diverse needs impacting instructional planning in this lesson.
I do not have any students who will require any differentiated instruction; however I will
incorporate various ways of teaching for the different learning styles for the students so that
the each can learn the best way.
37
Objective/Target:
Objective 3: Gain an
understanding what the words
Fauves and Cubism and artists
and their works associated with

E. Opening:
Is anybody familiar with what Modern or Contemporary Art?
We now know some parts of what Pop Art is but that is only part of the Modern and
Contemporary Art periods.
38
Well today we are going to go over what both periods consist of and the artists that are
involved with each of these.
If you would like to take notes, please do. It is highly encouraged because this material
will show up on your final.
F. Strategies and Activities:
Students will be asked that they take notes to help them prepare later for the final.
Students are to listen to PowerPoint presentation over Modern and Contemporary
Art. The teacher will periodically ask questions throughout PowerPoint to engage
students into active thinking and responding to the images they are seeing.
Students will be shown a short video over Pablo Picasso.
The students will have a review game over all the terms for the final. They each
will get an opportunity to answer a question and give a chance to answer correctly
to receive a piece of candy.
Students will be given a final over all the terms from the trimester, it will have 15
fill-in the blank with a word bank and 3 draw the figure.
G. Modifications:
No modifications had to be made for this lesson.
H. Formative Assessment:
Students will be asked questions periodically about the images in the PowerPoint
presentation.

J. Summative Assessment:
Students will be given a final exam that covers every lesson from the begin to end
of the trimester including the Modern and Contemporary Art lesson , 15 fill-in the
blank with a word bank and 3 draw the figure.
INSTRUCTIONAL IMPACT/ ANALYSIS OF TEACHING AND LEARNING
1. Analyze student assessment(s) and discuss the accomplishments of your students and the
growth in learning that was achieved.
The accomplishments and growth that the students had were reflected through the scores
they had received on their summative assessment which were really high. This tells me
that the students did grow in learning about the topic because they were able to meet the
objectives over the lesson.
2. What worked well in your lesson? Why?
39
What worked was having a review game for their final exam and even though this
consisted of previous lessons, students responded well to the game and receiving rewards
for their effort to learn the content. The results of the final shows that the review did in
fact help the students to better remember and are more prepared for the exam.
3. What did not work well in your lesson? Why?
There were some students who had missed the day of the exam and then school had been
closed due to snow. So they had to take the test at a later dated. These students did not
meet either objective. This tells me that they did not retain the information that had given.
This is a problem and will be something that will need work for the future.
4. What changes in the delivery of your planned lesson did you have to while you were
teaching due to student needs, understanding or behavior? How did these changes impact
student learning?
No changes to my delivery had to be made.
5. Describe how you gave instructional feedback to the students.
We held a class discussion over the images we were viewing and this was a chance for
me to provide feedback on what the students had to say about the images and artists.
INSTRUCTIONAL REFINEMENT
1. What changes would you make before you taught this lesson again?
A change I could make would be to put the students into groups and each group would
get one image from the Modern and Contemporary that they would have to analyze and
tell what they believe the artist was trying to accomplish through made the piece.
2. How would you reteach your objective(s) if students did not make satisfactory progress?
The way I could reteach my objectives to the students who did not get satisfactory
progress is through better connections to terms with their meanings and making it so
those students can comprehend the information better.
3. How could you alter your classroom management choices to make this lesson better?
For this lesson, I thought that my classroom management skills worked fairly well. Even
though students got off track a few times, I quickly addressed the issue and went back to
teaching the lesson before any other students got off track because of the disruption.
40
B. Connect the objective to the state curriculum documents, i.e., Kentucky Core Academic
Standards OR Program of Studies/Core Content. Follow each connection with a sentence
describing how this is accomplished in your lesson.
1.13 Students make sense of ideas and communicate ideas with the visual arts.
2.22 Students create works of art and make presentations to convey a point of view.
Students will take their drawn out ideas and creating and forming them into a 3-D piece of
art, they learn to take something that is 2-D and make it so that it has volume and no long
flat on paper. They will show the class their completed piece and be able to show how
their piece fits all of the requirements.
C. Describe students prior knowledge or the focus of the previous learning.
This was a class that had just started, so the students do not have any previous learning to
this lesson. It is possible that they could have made paper mache projects on their own,
however.
D. Describe the characteristics of your students who will require differentiated instruction to
meet their diverse needs impacting instructional planning in this lesson.
I do not have any students who will require any differentiated instruction; however I will
incorporate various learning styles for the students so that the each can learn the best way.

mache heads.
Students then will also be watching a video of a person showing how to use chick
wire and paper mache to make an art sculpture piece.
Next students will sketch out their idea of how their Giant Paper Mache Head
mask will look.
They are allowed to use reference images to help complete the desired idea they
have, which they may do that before starting to sketch.
After getting approval for their idea, the students may start forming the piece out
of chicken wire and then adding 3-4 layers of paper mache to the chicken wire.
Students may use masking tape to various things to make their head mask as
interesting as possible.
The students will then paint their piece with either spray paint or acrylic paint.
G. Modifications:
No modifications had to be made.
H. Formative Assessment:
Sketches of idea on how they are to execute their Giant Paper Mache Head Mask.
I. Closing:
Final critique on their finished piece.
J. Summative Assessment:
Students will have a completed Giant Paper Mache Head that they can see and
breathe out of and can fit over their own head.
INSTRUCTIONAL REFINEMENT
1. What changes would you make before you taught this lesson again?
I would definitely make sure there was plenty of time for these pieces. This project had to
be extended because of the snow and the school closing.
2. How would you reteach your objective(s) if students did not make satisfactory progress?
I would do a step-by-step demo of this project so that those students have troubles can
physically see how to go about making the piece.
3. How could you alter your classroom management choices to make this lesson better?
The students in this class are all students who have had one or more art classes and tend
to take the class more seriously and behave accordingly. There were no disruptions
during the lesson and students listened attentively.

know what is expect of them. Also this class is hard to get in and students really want to be in it so these students take their work and
projects a little more serious. Many of the students are AP art students who have not taken the 3-D Art class yet. This was also a
project not many students have ever done so it is something new and wanted try it out to see what they could make. This is a hands-on
project too and many students react better to kinesthetic learning. Students have a choice in part of the project as well. They had a
chance to choose what their face was going to look like. This gives the students a say and they like to have this bit of free on the
project.
Least Successful Objective
Based on your analysis, identify the objective which the least students met. List the objective number and restate the learning
objective.
Intro. Art
The least successful objective for this lesson would be Objective 2 which was to Create a Pop Art piece using a medium of your
choice of the word/words you drew at random. Use your own way to interpret your word/words. This objective was in connection with
Objective 1 which is to Sketch out your idea for the Pop Art piece you are creating.
3-D Art
Objective 1 and 2 were both successful and were not lacking. The students did not have much knowledge on 3-D Art when given the
pre-assessment however after the completion of their project, every student scored very well on the project as a whole.
Reasons for Lack of Success
Provide one or more or more possible reasons for this lack of success and support your reasoning.
Intro. Art
The reason this is the least successful is because there was three students who did not score high enough to meet the objective and two
that did not do the Pop Art piece at all. They two students who did nothing were even every opportunity to complete a piece with in
the almost two weeks the students had to work on the piece. I talked to both students on the matter and one gave me no reasoning
other than just not wanting to. The other student said that they had applied for early graduation however this student finished out the
trimester. The reason the three other student scored low was because their piece did not meet the requirements and they had started on
the day before they were due.
50
3-D Art
The only reason the objectives were lacking at first was because majority of the students have never worked in a 3-D style or have
ever worked with paper mache and chicken wire. This is evident in the pre-assessment scores to the post assessment scores.
Growth
Construct a graph that shows the growth in the class average for each objective from pre-to-post test and identify the objective that had
the greatest growth.

I have also gained an understanding about all the factors that could stop your students from
learning within just your classroom. As a future educator, I need to make it so that all the ways
that could stop my students from learning are cut out of my classroom. I have gained a better
understanding what all is truly expected of me as a future educator. Also seeing that I have the
capability to help my students grow in learning the topics that I will be asked to teach.
