									The following attachment below is our class activity for this week. You are to create a Romanesque/Gothic inspired Pop-Up Cathedral. You have one of two choices in order to complete your Pop-Up. The choices are to either make up your own with drawing out the dimensions shown below, or to print out the St. Paul .pdf. After that, you will then color (decorate) and cut out your cathedral. This activity can be completed using regular copy paper but produces better results if you use heavier paper like cardstock paper. For the .pdf, please watch the video attached below for step-by-step instructions. This was started in class and is to be completed by this Thursday and is worth 10 points.<br>

									Please complete the following worksheets on Chapter 15: GOTHIC ART - Lesson 2 - Sculpture & Illustrated Books (pages: 69-71) with utilizing our class book, Art In Focus. Class discussions consisted in learning about Gothic sculptures and how they complemented the architectural setting of the cathedrals in which they were placed. Since soaring cathedrals looked as if they were stretching upward to the heavens above, discussions in class were of how the sculptures created then were very elongated. You can clearly see how identifiable the figures are as they project outwards into space. As a class, we went over viewing different Gothic sculptures and talked about how artists of that time created more realistic figures in their appearance. For example, illustrating them as real people in their daily lives and how lifelike the sculptures were and expressive where you could see emotions. We looked at the Veneration for the Virgin Mary as an example in how the sculptures of her at that time are of a gentle nature and much more human-like. Then, we moved onto discussing the sculptures on cathedral tops that were decorated with gargoyles (grotesque flying monsters). How these actually functioned as rainspout's and were made to look like they were evil spirits fleeing a building that they were placed on. Also, there was a demand at that time for illustrated religious books and they grew during this Gothic period. These books drew from the influence of stained-glass art. Illustrations showed figures with dark outlines enclosed in architectural frameworks. For example, the reference of the famous Book of Hours by the Limbourg Brothers illustrates scenes from each of the twelve months in rich detail. Altogether, students are to complete in-class Guided Reading Worksheets and take a Quiz to access learning. Altogether, this assignment is worth 25 points and is due by this Thursday (since there is no school Friday).<br>

									Please fill in the following Guided Reading Worksheets (pages: 60-62 ) for Chapter 15: Lesson 1 - GOTHIC ART with reading our class text, Art In Focus. Our class textbook can be found under Class Materials. Students are able to illustrate their knowledge from in class discussions regarding Gothic Art. Class discussions consisted in learning about the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries where trade, the growth of cities, and the increasing power of kings brought an end to the feudal system. The term Gothic was used for the art style of this period that replaced classical Greek and Roman forms. French architects used pointed arches, piers, and flying buttresses to erect slender, soaring cathedrals. The arches directed pressure downward to the slender supporting piers were the great architectural features at that time. Later came supports, or braces known as “flying buttresses” that reached over the side aisles of churches and counteracted the thrust of the piers. Since walls could be made much thinner, these were filled with colorful stained-glass windows depicting Christian themes. Sunlight was able to stream through these windows, illuminating the churches and the relief sculptures inside. Bishops in cities vied to build the most magnificent cathedrals. The Gothic style was also adopted for monasteries and secular buildings as well. Altogether, students are to complete in-class their Guided Reading Worksheets, and then take a Quiz to better assess their learning. This assignment is worth 25 points and due by midnight this Sunday.<br>

									Please fill in the following Guided Reading Worksheets (pages: 42 - 44) for Chapter 14: Lesson 2 - Romanesque Art with reading our class text, Art In Focus. Our class textbook can be found under Class Materials. Students are able to illustrate their knowledge learned from in class discussions regarding Early Medieval Art. Class discussions consist of learning about how the Western Roman Empire crumbled, and the new artistic style known as the Romanesque Period developed. Constant disputes over land under the feudal system caused nobles to build fortified castles. When in the 13th century trade and industry grew, cities were built with stone barricades around them to protect. At the center of each town was a richly decorated stone church. Churches were also built at pilgrimage destinations, where people would journey to visit the sacred remains of a saint. Architects continued to build using a NAVE and a TRANSEPT, often adding side aisles and an AMBULATORY, an aisle curving around behind the main altar. Romanesque churches appeared larger and solid from the outside and had small windows making the interiors dark and solemn. Altogether, students are to complete the in-class Guided Reading Worksheets, take a short T/F QUIZ, then complete a TEST in Google Forms to assess their knowledge. This assignment is worth 25 points and is due this Friday.<br>

									Inspired by the Early Medieval & Romanesque Periods, you will create your own Illuminated Letter. The following steps are for you to follow:<br><br>Step 1- Study fonts used for illuminated letter designs from the laptop cart. Common fonts are Roman and Uncial. Some examples are attached below<br>Step 2 - With a pencil, draw a line that is 1" from the edge of the paper. Draw a second line that is 2" from the edge, creating a 1" wide frame.<br>Step 3 - Select and draw a letter. It can overlap the frame a little bit if you want. Tip: Letter stencils can be made by printing large fonts from a computer. You can use the light box in the classroom, or a window to trace.<br>Step 4 - Decide what theme you want to use and design the border. Images can flow from outside and inside the border.<br>Step 5 - Continue designing inside the box and the background.<br>Step 6 - Trace over designs with an ultra-fine black Sharpie. Erase pencil lines.<br>Step 7 - Add "illumination" by painting areas and design elements with gold or silver paint.<br>Step 8 - Color remaining areas with colored pencils.<br>Optional - Experiment with other letters and creative elements. Use design element to create the letter to tell a story.<br>This project is due this Friday and is worth 10 points.<br>
