Painted Story Quilt
(art + social studies; art + literature)
Quilt-making spans multiple centuries and many different cultures. It’s an art form that can teach basic math skills, record history, recycle cast-off materials and encourage cooperative efforts within a group...just to name a few ideas! Artist and author Faith Ringgold is renowned for her painted story quilts. She surrounds her narrative paintings with a quilted fabric border, creating visual art that tells a story in color, texture and pattern. In this lesson, students select a story to illustrate — a book they’ve read or a story of their own to share — then paint a scene on fabric pieces using watersoluble pastels and watercolor paint. The remaining fabric is painted with complimenting colors and patterns to make a border, and glued when dry to a piece of felt. Students are encouraged to share swatches with one another, just as fabrics have been created and shared in quiltmaking for centuries. As an option, students define key shapes with embroidery stitches and
add beads.

Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC
Rating
0.0 stars

SYNOPSIS: This lesson guides students to explore color in art and the connection of color to emotions.

SCIENTIST NOTES: This lesson builds the capacity of students to analyze the contents in an artwork, probe why the artists used the colors in the piece, and explore the underlying feelings attached to the colors. The activity in this lesson would also enable them to interpret the colors in artworks and communicate their feelings towards extreme climate impact. All the materials featured in the lesson have been verified, and this lesson is recommended for teaching.

POSITIVES:
-Students engage with hands-on activities to demonstrate their understanding of the relationship between color and emotions.
-Students understand the meaning of climate change artworks.
-Students understand why artists use color in their artwork.
-Students practice painting techniques.

ADDITIONAL PREREQUISITES:
-This is lesson 2 of 3 in our K-2nd grade Emotive Art unit.
-The Teacher Slideshow does not feature an Inquire section. You can use the Teacher Slideshow for the Investigate and Inspire sections of this lesson plan.
-Make sure you prepare the Feelings Cards, templates, and painting materials prior to the lesson.
-You can alternatively use cut-up colored paper instead of printing the Feelings Cards.
-You will need to have artworks printed if you want students to participate in a gallery walk.

DIFFERENTIATION:
-Students can complete the activities in pairs, small groups, or a whole class, dependent on ability.
-Students could also split into ability groups to support all students.
