This zentangle growth mindset project is one of my favorite activities for the beginning of the school year!
Inspired by pinterest... I took photos of the children a few days before starting the lesson. Use a white background when taking the profile photo. Use photo shop to create the silhouette or other photo editing software. I had the silhouettes printed on large 11x17 paper at my office. The day we started the lesson we talked about the elements of art, line, shape, form, value, space and some principles such as pattern and rhythm with the use of a power point. To finish the class, I had students trace them on the light table on 12x18 paper. Students also practiced creating patterns based on some examples on a worksheet I created for practicing the zentangle designs. I assessed the students designs and discussed some more options, ideas and things to stay away from on day two. I also equipped each table with some step by step zentangle pages I got from various sources on the internet including pinterest. These helped a lot! Students outlined their pencil silhouette with black sharpie. We then started dividing the background into large sweeping sections. Students then began creating Zentangles in the sections using ultra fine point sharpies and regular sharpies to fill in areas with black. After a few days of working, we decided the final step would be to fill in the silhouettes with black. I did experiment with adding watercolor in a wash and tie-dyed fashion to the background. That looked cool too. We didn't do that to our final project due to time needs for our short time together. The final results were great! I made suggestions for students to add details to areas, add more contrast by adding blacked out areas and finally to spend a little time sharpening and cleaning up various lines. The turned out GREAT!

Fifth graders learned about the life and art of Georgia O'Keeffe. They learned about how she liked to zoom up close on her subjects. She loved flowers, skulls and sometimes architecture and mindscapes. We combined her zoomed up flowers with the new art of zentangles! Zentangles are basically doodles with tons and tons of patterns! Finally, we learned how to mix up tints and shades of a single color and used them in our background. Lesson Objectives: I can learn about the life and art of Georgia O'Keeffe I can create detailed patterned zentangles I can mix tints and shades to create value in my art.
