5th Grade Native American Figure Drawing

As part of our district wide Native American unit this year, we are combining our 5th grade Native American studies with figure drawing in art. We reviewed what we knew already about Native Americans and added to that knowledge by reading some books and watching some youtube clips. We talked about the art genre of figure drawing and drew Native American dancers!

Learning Goals:

Students can create a figure drawing with correct proportions

Students can add detail and pattern

Students can blend warm colors in the background

Students can use pictographs to create a story in the background
