1 00:00:00,338 --> 00:00:02,921 (upbeat music) 2 00:00:09,462 --> 00:00:11,940 -: Hi welcome back, Mr. G here, 3 00:00:11,940 --> 00:00:13,720 with another lesson plan for you, 4 00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:17,040 and again this is Mr. G's RAP sessions 5 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:21,810 which is based off of Recycled Art Projects, 6 00:00:21,810 --> 00:00:25,687 and this session is session number one, 7 00:00:28,980 --> 00:00:31,673 and it is Words To Live By. 8 00:00:33,310 --> 00:00:37,130 Today we are going to talk about collage, 9 00:00:37,130 --> 00:00:40,870 and collage is building up a bunch of different items 10 00:00:40,870 --> 00:00:42,590 to make a single picture. 11 00:00:42,590 --> 00:00:44,820 And today we are going to make a collage of words 12 00:00:44,820 --> 00:00:47,880 and words that you identify with, 13 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:49,890 words that are important to you. 14 00:00:49,890 --> 00:00:52,790 And we are gonna add a component 15 00:00:52,790 --> 00:00:56,313 of a visual graphic with it too, or a picture. 16 00:00:57,420 --> 00:00:59,660 Okay so I started out 17 00:00:59,660 --> 00:01:03,550 and have gotten this far so far with my collage. 18 00:01:03,550 --> 00:01:07,400 And I picked some words like game changers 19 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,380 because I'm a visual art teacher, 20 00:01:09,380 --> 00:01:13,370 I see some pretty dynamic students on a daily basis. 21 00:01:13,370 --> 00:01:14,640 They're the game changers, 22 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,320 I'm just a person trying to help them along. 23 00:01:17,320 --> 00:01:19,800 So now we're gonna start to build up our piece. 24 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,040 When you're building up your piece, 25 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:22,670 you might wanna sit there 26 00:01:22,670 --> 00:01:25,330 and go oh I might wanna place something here, 27 00:01:25,330 --> 00:01:28,100 or oh I might wanna place it there. 28 00:01:28,100 --> 00:01:32,010 Today I am going to place it here because I am the artist 29 00:01:32,010 --> 00:01:33,810 and that's where I chose for it to be. 30 00:01:33,810 --> 00:01:35,110 Wherever you guys decide 31 00:01:35,110 --> 00:01:37,773 that you wanna put your pieces, that's great. 32 00:01:42,990 --> 00:01:45,740 And again, a prompter, if you are cutting 33 00:01:45,740 --> 00:01:48,590 out of a magazine, a book, or a newspaper, 34 00:01:48,590 --> 00:01:52,570 please ask somebody to do so before you start. 35 00:01:52,570 --> 00:01:54,090 I don't want you to get in trouble 36 00:01:54,090 --> 00:01:56,020 for accidentally cutting out something 37 00:01:56,020 --> 00:01:58,570 that somebody might have wanted to keep, so thanks. 38 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,530 And now I'm just taking pieces that I've already cut out 39 00:02:13,530 --> 00:02:15,270 that I think describe me. 40 00:02:15,270 --> 00:02:19,030 I'm taking a heartbeat now because I feel 41 00:02:19,030 --> 00:02:22,430 like I have a heartbeat and I'm pretty vibrant, 42 00:02:22,430 --> 00:02:24,640 and I'm putting it on there. 43 00:02:24,640 --> 00:02:28,660 And again, you are going to pin where you want to. 44 00:02:28,660 --> 00:02:31,210 I'm going to take the word charity 45 00:02:31,210 --> 00:02:33,580 because I believe that we give to people 46 00:02:33,580 --> 00:02:36,020 that are less fortunate than us, 47 00:02:36,020 --> 00:02:38,883 and I know that it's been done for me in the past. 48 00:02:43,916 --> 00:02:45,860 And we're gonna glue on a couple of more. 49 00:02:45,860 --> 00:02:49,720 You guys can put on as many or as few pieces as you can. 50 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,440 Do start to think about the words 51 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,320 that you're putting on your piece 52 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:58,160 and how they are special to you. 53 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,270 And if you get a chance, please talk it over 54 00:03:01,270 --> 00:03:03,150 with your friends, your parents, 55 00:03:03,150 --> 00:03:06,710 anybody that finds your work interesting. 56 00:03:06,710 --> 00:03:11,710 This can be done, this project can be done by any age unit 57 00:03:12,170 --> 00:03:16,380 that feels like it can do this project. 58 00:03:16,380 --> 00:03:18,610 And it might be a good thing for parents 59 00:03:18,610 --> 00:03:21,400 to sit down and talk over with their kids to find out 60 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,210 some things about their kids that they might like. 61 00:03:24,210 --> 00:03:27,823 So I'm gonna add on the few last pieces. 62 00:03:31,810 --> 00:03:33,450 And again, rule of thumb, 63 00:03:33,450 --> 00:03:38,450 please ask if you can cut things out. 64 00:03:38,550 --> 00:03:40,220 I know that I'm stressing on that, 65 00:03:40,220 --> 00:03:42,950 but again, I don't want you to cut something out 66 00:03:42,950 --> 00:03:44,490 that somebody might have wanted, 67 00:03:44,490 --> 00:03:46,300 and I don't want you to get in trouble 68 00:03:46,300 --> 00:03:48,513 for cutting something out that you shouldn't have. 69 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:09,540 Okay so this is where I've gotten to so far, 70 00:04:09,540 --> 00:04:11,500 and, just briefly, I'm going 71 00:04:11,500 --> 00:04:15,486 to review some of the words that I picked. 72 00:04:15,486 --> 00:04:18,890 I picked the word real because I always try to be real 73 00:04:18,890 --> 00:04:22,493 and truthful to myself, my truth. 74 00:04:23,950 --> 00:04:26,357 I picked the word time 75 00:04:26,357 --> 00:04:29,130 because time is super important to me, 76 00:04:29,130 --> 00:04:33,600 giving time to young people, spending time with people 77 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,340 that want to grow, and learning from people. 78 00:04:36,340 --> 00:04:38,300 And I also used the words kids 79 00:04:38,300 --> 00:04:41,380 because I really enjoy working with kids. 80 00:04:41,380 --> 00:04:44,979 Again, I hope that you guys had a great time 81 00:04:44,979 --> 00:04:48,500 building a collage based off of the words 82 00:04:48,500 --> 00:04:51,340 that you identify with. 83 00:04:51,340 --> 00:04:56,340 Thanks again for going on this journey with me, see ya. 84 00:04:56,821 --> 00:04:59,404 (upbeat music)
