THE PLAN
7 sessions; 50 minutes per session
1. Students will create a Zentangle drawing using patterns created on their Elements and Principles design matrix.
2. Students will demonstrate their knowledge of the elements and principles through the creation of tangles or patterns.
3. Students will use at least eight different patterns in their drawing, and at least five must come from their design matrix.
1. Complete your design matrix with patterns you could use for your Zentangle that use the elements and principles of design.
2. Brainstorm different shapes you could use as the outline or frame of your Zentangle. You will want to choose something recognizable, like the images at the top of this rubric.
3. When you have decided on a frame, draw it out on your paper using pencil.
4. Draw in some “strings” to fit your “tangles” into. These lines can be random, or they can help make your frame into a recognizable object, like the eyes and feathers of the bird above.
5. Choose at least 5 patterns from your design matrix to use in your Zentangle. Be prepared to tell me how the patterns demonstrate at least one of the elements or principles of design.
6. Fill in your Zentangle with your tangles (patterns). Think about balance and unity when filling in your design. You should use at least 8 tangles in your completed image. At least 5 must come from your design matrix.
7. When your Zentangle is complete, go over everything with black marker.
8. Mat your finished image. Sign the bottom right hand corner.
9. Complete the rubric and paperclip it to your finished work. Hand everything in.
Students will be assessed based on the attached rubric.
