Author: Kathryn Maxwell
Grade Level: Art Class Grade 8
Indiana Educational Standards: Visual Arts Standards 3 and

8.3.1
Rationale: Students have seen and discussed slides
about architectural styles, written and defined architecture vocabulary, drawn
motifs of architectural elements, drawn and labeled examples of architectural
elements on a computer "Paint" program, and created a step-by-step architectural
drawing in two-point perspective. Therefore, after reviewing the information
gleaned from the above-mentioned lessons, the student should be able to
successfully complete the architectural drawing quiz with 70% accuracy.
8.3.2
Preparation: The teacher will run enough copies of
the "Architectural Drawing Quiz" for the entire class. Have paper,
rulers, and extra pencils and erasers available for use.
8.3.2
Objective: Given architectural terms, the student
should be able to draw visual examples of the listed terms with 70% accuracy.
8.7.3
Introduction: We have spent a week discussing,
defining, and drawing about architecture: its styles, vocabulary, and structural
elements. Today we are to take a drawing quiz. You will receive a handout with
boxes drawn on it. There is an architectural term in each box. Correctly draw an
example of that term in the box provided. Please write your name on your paper.
8.10.1
Activity: Students are to draw to the best of their
ability examples of the architectural terms listed in the boxes on the
"Architectural Drawing Quiz." They may use rulers, pencils, and erasers.
They may not use their notes from previous lessons.
