Kari Wilson has been an educator for over twenty years, teaching first through sixth grades as well as middle school language arts and social studies. Her current passion is teaching art at a public middle school in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Kari's own education includes a Bachelor of Fine Arts from San Francisco State University, a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Arizona, and a Master of Education, along with teaching credentials.
Kari stepped out of the classroom for several years to serve as a Curriculum Associate in a large California school district, where she developed a variety of programs from “Back to School with Basic Health and Safety” to “The Achievement Club,” a program designed to help struggling readers. This program received the Golden Bell award from the California School Boards Association. As a member of the California History Social Science Project (CHSSP), Kari was involved in the development and implementation of numerous social studies units. Kari’s unit, Child Work in Colonial Days, was published by the UCLA branch of CHSSP.
Kari has continued exploring her interest in history as a recent participant in a Gilder Lehrman summer institute at the Woodrow Wilson Presidential Library, where she engaged in research for the development of a series of civics lessons which include integrated art activities. These lessons on the Core Democratic Values, as well as her other curriculum units for preschool through 10th grade, are available online at FunLessonplans.com, a companion site to FunArtLessons.com.

Guiding Question
The guiding question provides “food for thought” to help connect the project to a larger philosophical discussion.
Journal Response Topics
Students write responses in their sketchbooks and share with partners and group mates. This process helps enrich class discussion and helps students plan their project.
Art Start
Art Start is a series of independent activities which provide exercise in basic art skills and concepts needed for the unit project. Students work independently in their sketchbook the first 10-15 minutes of class.
Research
The research component encourages students to explore cultural, historical and environmental connections between the unit project and the world beyond the classroom.
The Project
Slides provide step-by-step instructions. During project work days demonstrate additional skills or methods as they become necessary. The Lesson Sequence chart provides a basic time frame for the project. During project work days circulate assisting students with methods, techniques and ideas.
Assessment
Use the “I Can” slide and worksheet to help students track their learning. Use the Interactive Assessment Guide to engage students in analyzing the ways in which their art and work habits meet the project criteria. The self-critique questions ask the artist to reflect on the art-making process. Answers can be rewritten on the form provided to create an Artist’s Statement.
Exhibition
It is important for students to have the opportunity to display their work to complete the process of communication in which artists are engaged. Instructions are provided for students to create a gallery information card, write an artist’s statement and find an appropriate venue for display.

Notice how Albrecht Dürer created different textures on the rhinoceros's hide with different types of lines.
What do you think the lower legs feel like compared with his chin?
Make a pencil sketch of a reptile such as a lizard, turtle or crocodile.
Use lines to show texture on the skin. Feel free to borrow from this Dürer print.

Fold a long, horizontal piece of paper into fourths so that just one section is shown at a time. If possible use a four foot length of butcher paper or chart paper.
Work with the paper so that when you are finished it will unfold horizontally.
Group members take turns drawing the following animal parts in each box, folding the paper over so that the next person does not see the drawings:1. Head2. First section of body3. Second section of body4. Tail
Journal Response 2
© 2009 Wilson Publishing32
The “Die Brücke” artists wanted to break with traditional, realistic style in their artwork in order to emphasize self expression. Look at this woodcut print, “The Prophet,” 1912, by Emile Nolde. Do you think it is good art? Why or why not?
Let’s Get Started on the Art Project
Follow the steps outlined in the next few slides to create your own linocut animal prints.
© 2009 Wilson Publishing33
Step Oneplan your design
© 2009 Wilson Publishing34
Choose an animal real or imagined that you would like to draw.
Cut paper the size of the linoleum you will use.
Plan your drawing carefully so that you include texture lines and marks to show the fins, feather or fur.
Read the next slide for helpful hints.
Step TwoHelpful hints
© 2009 Wilson Publishing35
Remember:your design will print
backwards!The parts you cut
away will not print.If you want a line or
shape to print it must be in “relief” – not the part cut away!
Use a variety of lines to create texture.
Step ThreeSafety Demonstration
© 2009 Wilson Publishing36
Before you begin, watch a demonstration by your teacher. Be sure to follow safety rules!
1. Always use a bench hook.2. Keep your “holding hand”
out of the path of the carving tool.
3. Always cut away from your body: Turn your linoleum, do not move your hand to the front of your linoleum!
4. Remind others if you see them forgetting the rules.
Step FourCopy drawing
© 2009 Wilson Publishing37
Copy your drawing onto the linoleum.
To transfer your drawing easily 1. Rub pencil all over the back
side of your drawing paper.2. Place the pencil side down
on your carving surface so that your original animal drawing is facing up.
3. Lightly trace over the lines of your drawing.
4. Lift your paper off the linoleum and you should see the light lines of your drawing.
5. Redo any lines which are too light.
Step FiveCarve
© 2009 Wilson Publishing38
Set up your bench hook so that the wooden strip on the bottom rests firmly against the edge of your table.
Gather several different cutting tools from a fine to a large size.
Begin by carving the contour line of your animal with a medium wide blade.
Step SixCarve your design
© 2009 Wilson Publishing39
Carve details such as eyes, mouth, teeth and claws.
Use a variety of blades to carve lines and marks to show the texture of the fins, feathers or fur of your animal.
Step SevenGet ready to print
© 2009 Wilson Publishing40
Gather newspaper, ink, brayers and inking boards such as a plastic lunch tray, or styro foam plate.
Set up a station for each different color you want to use.
Change the newspaper after each person so that ink doesn’t get on clean paper.
Step EightInking
© 2009 Wilson Publishing41
Put a grape-sized dollop of ink on the board.
Roll the brayer horizontally and vertically, just the width of the brayer to evenly ink the roller.
Roll the ink in both directions over your linocut until it is spread evenly and completely covered.
Step NineMake a test print
© 2009 Wilson Publishing42
Place your inked “plate” or linocut face up on clean newspaper.
Carefully set your printing paper on top of the inked plate.
While holding the paper and plate with one hand, gently rub with the heel of your hand all over the paper. Do not use your finder tips as this can cause the paper to sink into cut away portions of the plate.
To remove your print carefully peel it off the plate.
Examine your print and recarve where necessary to get the effect your want.
Step TenFinal printing
© 2009 Wilson Publishing43
Make at least four prints.Be sure to rinse your
printing plate when you change ink colors.
Experiment with color: Print twice on one piece of
paper in two different colors. Off set your plate slightly so both colors show.
Ink different parts of the plate with different colors.
Use different colored papers.
Place prints on a shelf or rack to dry. Do not overlap!
Finishing
© 2009 Wilson Publishing44
If you like, choose a print to mount on mat board or construction paper.
Display your artwork in a hallway or the refrigerator door at home!
Make a Gallery Card
Directions: Make a gallery card to put next to your prints in a display case or bulletin board. Fold an unlined index card or piece of card stock in half so that it will stand up like a tent. Write the following information on your gallery card in dark or colorful marker.
