The central idea and lines of inquiry that they are using are as follows:
A work of art is the product of complex processes.
Lines of inquiry:
1. the features of artistic expression (form)
2. people respond differently to the same stimuli (perspective)
3. artists reflections shape the final product (reflection)
As I am in the last couple of weeks in my movement composition unit, the students have started to work on creating their final routines. I will highlight the importance of ensuring a process is followed when creating these routines as they are working on complex processes in their unit of inquiry in class. I am focusing on the 4th line of inquiry mostly, but will also have a look at and consider the 3rd as well.
Objectives of Summative Assessment Task
A)Create a routine, in groups, based on Cirque Du Soleil, Stomp, Gymnastics, and Yoga
B)Choose one element/action from each of the above areas to integrate into a final routine
C)Record their progress through the assessment task in booklets
I have made up movement composition booklets(please see slide show below of booklet) in which the students will:
1.Use a check box to indicate when they have completed each step of the movement composition process
2.Write a short reflection at the conclusion of each step of the process
3.Draw and explain each of the elements that they have used on their routine
4.Complete a self and peer assessment rubric at the end of the task
