Week of May 9

Students are taking the STAR tests this week, and I won't be seeing them every day. All week, students are working on their Renaissance artist PowerPoint presentations (see directions below)they will present next beginning on Tuesday.

Your presentation will be at least 20 slides. See list below for order and content:
Slide 1: A title slide that includes the name of the artist and the titles of both pieces of art.
Slide 2: A slide that includes a brief biography of the artist.
Slide 3: A slide of just the painting with title.
Slide 4: A slide explaining what you see on first glance.
Slide 5: A slide explaining how the artist created the illusion of depth.
Slide 6: A slide including call-outs of what the figures might be saying.
Slides 7-10: An analysis of what the painting is about which includes close up/isolated/cut out examples of specific, important elements of the pieces
Slides 11-18: Repeat what you’ve done on slides 3-10, but for the second piece
