Description

This visual arts drawing curriculum is everything I use to teach a semester of high school art drawing. With this bundle, you won’t have to plan a single day of a semester in your drawing class. Each lesson includes a lesson plan, supply list, vocabulary, step-by-step instructions, PowerPoints, rubrics, critique sheets, handouts, and anything else needed to complete the project. This art curriculum was created for 9th-12th grade high school art students.

This drawing curriculum focuses on the basics of drawing techniques but also goes beyond traditional materials such as pencil and charcoal. In addition to the basics, still life, and charcoal drapery drawings, students also learn about mixed media, scratchboard, printmaking, colored pencil, bookbinding techniques, and much more.
