¶ … Lessons Plans for Teaching Baroque Artwork
Lesson Plan 1: Overview of Baroque Style Painting
Lesson Part
Teacher Activity Description
Student Activity Description
Instruction Inquiry: A description of the learning activity and its objectives will be provided.
Teacher introduces the Baroque style of painting and describes the historical period in which it was most influential (early 16th century through the early 18th century) (Engel, 2012). For instance, according to Engel, "Baroque was generated when Italian art, as based on corporeal, exterior activity, aligned itself to northern or Germanic art with its emphasis on interior, psychological movements" (p. 3). In sum, Baroque paintings are characterized by several features, including dynamism (e.g., there is a sense of motion discernible in the artwork) that is complemented by distinctive artistic effects such as (a) strong curves, (b) elaborate decoration and (c) diminished lighting effects (Baroque painting, 2015. There were some regional difference in style, though, with southern Western Europe favoring the full Baroque style that included all of the aforementioned artistic effects; while a modified approach known as restrained Baroque was favored in northern Western Europe; however, an isolated exception to this general demarcation was the full Baroque style that was embraced in Flanders (Baroque painting, 2015).
Students will describe the general historic period and regions in which Baroque emerged and matured as well as the different types of Baroque artwork that were embraced by different regions of Europe.
Informal Assessment
Students will be provided with an informal assessment concerning time period and the respective characteristic of full and restrained Baroque and the regions where they predominated.
Students will be assessed on their ability...
ty to accurately describe the distinguishing characteristics of Baroque paintings and the historic time period in which they emerged.
Practice Activity Support
Students will be shown a PowerPoint demonstration of different artworks from the historic period of interest and requested to identify those that are of Baroque style and which type.
Students will distinguish full and restrained Baroque paintings from other genres based on their distinguishing artistic features.
Closure
Teacher will summarize the influences, historic period and types of Baroque art that were characteristic of different regions of Europe.
Students will be able to describe the historic period in which Baroque painting emerged, the source of influence on Baroque artists and the types of Baroque painting that were characteristic of different regions of Europe.

Teacher Activity Description
Student Activity Description
Instruction Inquiry: Teacher will provide students with a PowerPoint demonstration of full and restrained Baroque style paintings.
Using a PowerPoint presentation, a series of full and restrained Baroque style paintings will be presented to students in order to illustrate their defining artistic elements and how they differ, as well as to highlight the overall extent of the homogeneity in each style (Martin, 1977).
Students will be provided with the opportunity to review various examples of restrained and full Baroque style paintings.
Informal Assessment
Students will be requested to accurately distinguish restrained from full Baroque style paintings.
After viewing the PowerPoint presentation and participating in the lecture, students will distinguish between full and…

Students will be able to analyze and critique Baroque style painting by looking at five Baroque style masters. They will learn the different methods of Baroque style painting -- the use of impasto (thick paint), sprezzato (rapid strokes), chiaroscuro (the use of light and shadow), and dynamism (the sense of motion). This information will allows students to better understand how the Baroque manner took shape and it will also
Teaching Video Lesson In the video I am showing how to paint like a Baroque artist, teaching the students the art of chiaroscuro, dynamism, impasto, and sprezzato. This would be lesson plan no. 5 and incorporates various aspects of the art technique. Promoting a Positive Learning Environment Demonstrating Respect, Rapport, and Responsiveness I demonstrated respect for students with varied needs and backgrounds by taking time to ask them each whether they saw how the
Classical Symphony Music, like other forms of art, evolved from numerous traditions that, when taken together, formed a new way of thinking about, and performing, certain types of works. Audiences change over time, and certain musical compositions that sound odd or strange to one audience are often accepted by others (e.g. The rioting during the premier of Stravinsky's Rite of Spring). When people think of classical music, for instance, they tend
In this movement he uses antiphonal, or equal bars of forte and equal bars of piano as the movement opens with a six note falling scale motif for this harmony. Finally there is a trio in D major, side by side, taking abrupt leaps and descents and which ends quietly with a modified recurrence of the scherzo. The first "repeat" was written out to allow an extra ritardando. There
architects in the 21st century is the issue of sustainability. Not only is there no consensus opinion on how to approach the issue of sustainability in academic circles but there is also no formula of integrating sustainability into architectural curriculum (Wright, 2003). This deficiency underscores an even more stressing problem, however: as Edwards and Hyett (2010) note, "the techniques and technologies of green design are now generally understood --
The advantages in efficiency were evident, as are the ways of apprenticing younger members slowly into the family trade. The more probable model is that the skilled labour was taken from the guilds, whose power was on the rise throughout Europe after AD 1100. Artistic and trade guilds selected their members. Such pooled labour provided training, experience, a career trajectory, and security for the craftsman, who could eventually work through
