LESSON 2 INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS:

NAME: _______________________ Date:_____________

MEDIEVAL-CONTEMPORARY THINK SHEET

In your groups, consider the four concepts you will be assigned for your essay/book binding project. The four concepts are as follows: Societal/religious fanaticism, International epidemics, Communication methods, and Concepts of architectural usage. After choosing your concept, answer the following questions. These are designed to help you gather your thoughts for your essay and your artwork.

1. What is your concept?

2. Which Medieval and Contemporary theme did you decide to compare and contrast?

3. What is similar about your themes? (ex. Ebola v. Plague, Facebook v. Manuscripts, etc.)

4. What is different about your themes?

5. In your group, gather some thoughts about your answers. Write below some points your group came up with that you would want to put into your short essay and your compare/contrast pages.

Remember, you will be working on this project together in your group. Make sure to communicate information properly and efficiently!

LESSON 3 INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS:

EXEMPLAR:

VISUAL STEP-BY-STEP for Book Pages-Step 1: Establish your border. You must use a ruler to measure out a 1” border on the left side of the page. This will be key for the end when we bind the pages together. The other sides of the paper do not need a border.

-Step 2: Establish your axis by using a ruler. You want to make sure your axis is aligned by a 90 degree angle. This will help you organize your composition and plan out where you want your images and text to go on the page.

-Step 3: Use your color theme to establish balance in your compositions. Using either tissue paper, paint, or water color, establish your first layer by evenly coating your page. If you are going to use tissue paper, wet your all purpose brush first with glue mixed with water and lay it on the page. Then, take your tissue paper, place it on the page and coat with the glue/water mixture. Just note if you do this, this method takes a bit longer to dry! For a water color or acrylic paint layer, use a small amount and create an even layer. Repeat until whole page is covered evenly.

-Step 4: Layer your ground layer using text from your essays, images from your research, and other materials around you. Make sure your images and text are aligned on the axis you have established in Step 2! You want to have multiple layers to create balance and visual interest. You want to make sure one page compares your images and one contrasts!

-Step 5: Create a cover page of your concept -societal mores/religious fanaticism, international epidemics, communication methods, and concepts of architectural usage- with your group. You want your cover page to introduce your theme to your audience! Cover pages must have a title and your names on it.
