Homework 11-4: Lesson Plan

Class Audience: 9th and 10th Grade Foundations Art Class

Lesson Title: "Still-Life In Reverse"

Activity: Using a 3D Printer to create objects based on individual student drawings

Learning Objective: Through using drawings to digitally model objects into a 3D format, students will learn how to understand space and form from the inside out. Students will also be able to explore 3D modeling software, such as Tinkercad, and experiment with potential used for 3D printing. 

Materials: Student drawings, 3D Modeling Software, 3D printer

Motivation: Who here likes drawing still-lives? Do you think you would like it more if you could create your own still life with personal belongings? Do you think you would like it even more if you could literally create those belongings from nothing?  Think about an object you think would be cool or interesting to look at for many hours. Think about the shapes and curves of that object. Think about how tall or short, or how wide or skinny the object is. Is the object stable? Does it need to be propped on something? Now sketch that object. Next we are going to use these sketched as inspiration to create our very own objects in the 3D printer!
