LTC 4240: Art for Children
Lesson Title & Big Idea*: Leaving Behind Our Stories Using Art
Lesson Overview/Summary*: (This is like an abstract of the structure and procedures section)
In this lesson students will be given background information of cave painting and will be shown
pictures of real cave paintings, then they will create their own. Students will be asked to think
about the stories behind the artwork and what they would paint on their walls to share with future
generations.
Key Concepts for each area (1-2 each): What you want the
students to know.*
1. Visual Art: Art can still be used to tell stories today.
Art was once one of the only forms of communication and
expression.
2. Literacy: Books are not the only way hear and learn stories.
Books can give us background information to learn more about
our topic.
3. Social Studies: Cave paintings are from more than 35,000
years ago and they did not have paint or tools, so they had to
create their own.
Cave paintings were a way for people to show how they
hunted, share stories, and religious ideas.
Grade Level*: 4th/5th

Class Periods Required:
(please circle)
1
Essential Questions (1-2)*:

What stories from the time period we live in do you think are
important for future generations to know?
How can we show these stories through art?
Lesson Objectives/Goals: (Excellent resource at http://www.teachervision.fen.com/curriculum-planning/new-teacher/48345.html?for_printing=1&detoured=1): What

you want the students to do. *
1. Visual Art: The students will be able to take a story and turn it into visual art.
2. Literacy: The students will be able to listen to a fictional book and apply it to the information they have learned about a
topic.
3. Social Studies: The students will be able to reflect on what life was like for people of the Stone- Age and think about how
that is different than their own lives and stories.
Grade Level Expectations (GLEs)
(3-4)
(http://dese.mo.gov/divimprove/curriculum/GLE/)
1. Visual Art (May use NAEA National standards): Anchor Standard
Instructional Strategies (Teachers approach to helping students

achieve learning)
Before the students begin independent work, I will give them

#1- Generate and conceptualize artistic ideas and work.
Anchor Standard #2- organize and develop artistic ideas and
work.
2. Literacy: Big Idea 5: AD 5 Applying the Skills of Transitioning
Between Educational Levels- Refine and apply strategies
emphasizing individual responsibility for educational tasks and
skills (GLE Grade 4).
3. Social Studies: Big Idea 1: PS 1 Understanding Self as an
Individual and as a Member of Diverse Local and Global
Communities- Reflect on personal roles in the community and
identify responsibilities as a community member (GLE Grade
4).
Content Areas Integrated*:
1. Visual Art (Inspiration Artist: _cave paintings_): Students
will use visual art as a way to express themselves in this
lesson. After learning about what cave paintings are and what
they mean, they will be able to think about their own lives and
reflect that through art.
2. Literacy: Literacy does not play a huge part in this lesson
but will be used as a way to get students thinking about cave
paintings and what they mean to history and our present day.
3. Social Studies: Social Studies will play an important part in
this lesson because it provides us with the background
information about this topic that most students do not have.
They have to think about the history of cave paintings before
they can create one of their own.
background knowledge about cave paintings and the time in

history that they are from. By doing this students will have a
better understanding the importance of cave painting and
why the stories they tell us are meaningful. I will also create a
list of potential story topics they can use in their artwork to
get their ideas started.
Lesson Structure & Procedure(s) Sequence of events of the lesson

elements. (The before, during, and after the lesson, e.g.
Engagement/Opening, Procedures, Guided Practice, Conclusion ,please be
very specific, walk me through step by step of the What of what is
happening with a rationale as to WHY you are doing this):
1.The lesson will begin with a read out loud of the book The
Cave Painter of Lascaux which is a picture book about a girl
discovering cave paintings and meeting the painter of them.
This will start the students brains working and begin the
investigation of cave paintings.
2. Next I will show the class pictures of cave paintings and
give them background knowledge about what stories they
told and why they were made.
3. While looking at the photos of paintings, the class will
engage in a discussion about what they see in the paintings,
textures, colors, potential meanings, etc. This will get the
class thinking about the time period of the paintings and
what they see in them.
4. Next I will pose the question What story would you want
to leave behind for future generations? Students will be
able to think about things that are happening in our present
day lives and how that is different from what people in the
Opening (Gaining Attention, what will you show, or demonstrate)*:

To begin the lesson I will read the students the picture book
The Cave Painter of Lascaux to get them started thinking
about Stone Age artwork. We will also take a look at pictures
of real cave paintings and talk about what stories we think
they were trying to tell and what information we now know
about these people.
Formative Assessment strategy: (how will you assess while the
learning is happening?)
While the students are creating their cave paintings I will be

asking questions about what stories they are wanting to share
with the future generations and how they plan to represent
them through art.
past experienced. They will be able to brainstorm with each

other and myself if they need help thinking of a story.
5. They will then be given sheets of lightly crumbled sheets
of construction paper (to represent the cave walls) and they
will be able to choose between watercolor, crayons, oil
pastel, etc. to create their artwork. They will not be able to
include any words in their art.
6. Throughout the project ask the students about what they
are drawing and how this is different than what took place
35,000 years ago.
7. After the students have completed their cave art, the class
will go in a circle and share what they created and why the
story is worth sharing with the future.
8. Finally as an assessment the students will be asked to
complete a sheet about two things they learned throughout
the project.
Closure (Reflecting Anticipatory Set, how will student share what they
learned):
After each student has created a cave painting they will share
with the class the story the chose to tell and how they
represented it. We will talk as a class about how important it
is to know about other time periods and what we can learn
from what they leave behind.
Summative Assessment strategy*:

After completing their individual cave paintings students will
share their work with the class and explain their stories and
how they represented it. As a form of assessment students
will be asked to complete a sheet explaining two things they
learned throughout the project, and one must be about the
Stone-Age.
What student prior knowledge will this lesson require/draw upon? (what do they need to already know)
This lesson will require students to draw on their knowledge of their generation and the world events around them. The will be
representing stories as art, so they will need to think back on their lives about what stories are important to tell.
Technology Instructional and/or assistive technology incorporated into the lesson to enhance instruction and student learning
To show the students pictures of real cave paintings I will use the internet and project the pictures to the class.
How will this lesson allow for/encourage students to solve problems in divergent ways?
This requires students to think about their lives and the world they live in and analyze how that life if different from the past
and will be different from the future. This project also allows kids to think about how they can tell stories without words.
When we think of story telling we think of voices and written language, but this project requires kids to express a story through
visual art.
How will you engage students in routinely reflecting on their learning? (How will the students know they have learned something?)
As a part of the assessment students must think back on the project and share two things they have learned (one must be
about the Stone Age). The hope is that by seeing cave paintings, learning about their history, and then creating their own
students will learn the importance of leaving something behind for other generations to learn from.
Differentiated/Accommodations/Modifications/Increase in Rigor To help meet the needs of all learners, learning differences,
cultural and language differences, etc.
A lot of the work is guided, other than the art project itself, but there are many ways to differentiate. If a student is an English
Language Learner, a teacher could use Text to Speech software to read the book to the student. The teacher could also allow
more time for the project if a student struggles with concentration. Finally, by giving the students many different options of
art supplies to create their project, the hope is that it will make the creating aspect easier and more enjoyable.
