Color Units K-5: Vertical Planning by Tracy Kuzminksy
PowerPoint of K-5 color units illustrates teaching color sequentially. The units model the way our curriculum should be taught, by layering new knowledge, art, and thinking skills onto learning from the previous grade level. Of note is the care with which each unit reinforces and adds new learning to the previous unit.
PowerPoint of K-5 art work samples from Discipline Based Lessons with brief notes on art topics and interdisciplinary connections. Includes a third grade lesson and the K-2 lessons that built the learning and skills reviewed and built upon in the 3rd grade lesson. Provides a good example of how to sequentually build learning at each grade level.
