Scholars worked on design projects using their hand as the subject. To tie in lessons on shapes vs forms and various lines, (emphasis on diagonal for this assignment) scholars created their designs, used 5 to 7 diagonal lines, and chose no less than 3 but no more than 4 colors.

| Scholars devote their class time focusing on the lesson objective |
Once scholars drew their hand and added their lines, they created a variety of interesting shapes. Scholars used their colored pencils to fill in their shapes making sure that no two colors ever sat side by side or were on top of each other.

| Scholars Jazz up their designs with color and make each one Unique. Even Mr. George would be impressed. |
Once scholars completed their designs, they were asked to go back in and look at the values they created. If their designs used all light colors, they were challenged to consider if it would be more interesting if a color they were using, say Purple for example, used both dark purples and light purples in their designs.
Scholars are informed of the lesson objectives, shown a partial example and view a demonstration. After a quick question and answer session, scholars get to work to meet the objectives. In our lessons, the objectives are clearly defined but how each scholar gets to the destination is up to them. After each session we review or critique to measure understanding.
