EXCERPT: The Bauhaus was founded in 1919 in Weimar, Germany by architect Walter Gropius. Gropius’s Proclamation of the Bauhaus (1919) stated: reimagine the material world to reflect the unity of all the arts. Bauhaus combined fine arts and design education. The curriculum began with a course in the study of materials, color theory, and formal relationships. It was taught by Paul Klee, Vasily Kandinsky, and/or Josef Albers. After learning theory, students entered specialized workshops, which included metalworking, cabinetmaking, weaving, pottery, typography, and wall painting. In 1923, Gropius stressed the importance of designing for mass production. The school’s slogan became, “Art into Industry.”

Art with Elmer is an Art and Design unit of work aimed primarily at children aged 5-7. Ideally it is scheduled in Year 1 and runs alongside reading the popular books about the patchwork elephant. The unit introduces children to some key elements of the art and design curriculum. The package provides the medium-term plan, six lessons (each lesson has a MS Powerpoint presentation) and a knowledge organiser. Additional resources are provided as PDFs. Strands of Learning: • Drawing • Painting • Sculpture • Collage Children learn some essential knowledge about colour, primary and secondary colours. They also learn how to add black and white to colours to create tints and shades. They are introduced to abstract art and the art of Wassily Kandinsky, and they apply this knowledge when creating an abstract elephant. Children are also introduced to the techniques of collage and assemblage sculpture when creating elephant-inspired art. Finally, they bring their learning together to create a portrait of a patterned elephant.

Distance Learning: This has everything for the distance learning experience. It has many parts: a) complete Expressionist Art History presentation in powerpoint. b) flash-discussion cards for review, enhancement or to spur class discussion (virtual or real); c) student search to reinforce what was read; copy and paste results onto blank pages. d) making artist card–tutorial and task (to share with class) e) making enhanced visual based test question- tutorial and task (to share with class) f) visually enhanced multiple choice test All these parts are shown in the Preview (where it is a lot easier to understand since there are actual slides). This is a complete presentation about Expressionist Art History which had its onset in Germany. This includes the countries surrounding Germany which also had artists involved in the movement, such as Munch in Norway, Schiele in Austria, Kandinsky as a German resident alien from Russia, etc., This art is intense, personal, colorful, beautiful and ugly. The ugly part isn’t a mistake. It is that the art is done right in front of a major disaster, which will be the rise of the Nazis culminating in WWII. The Expressionist artists ended up fleeing Europe with many of them ending up in America. But while they were in Europe, they captured everything going on and there is a bit of everything. There are glamorous people in the clubs and cafes and out on the streets. Yet there is a socio-economic dark cloud hovering over everyone after the terrible treaty provisions ending WWI. Schiele doesn’t even survive WWI as he’s felled by the Spanish flu pandemic. These events bring colors never seen before. The colors that these artists used in portraits, for example, made the Fauvists look restrained. Learn more by going to the Preview where you can view actual slides.

There are hyperlinks to sound clips in most of the powerpoints. The worksheets accompany the powerpoints.
