Learning Explaining the activity 10:49
Activity #1 You can pause source video at various places as you explain to help give a visual
representation.
Before we get to the art room

- “When you get to the art room there will be art supplies set up for 4
students to share”
Setps.
1.) To make the drawing easier you can divide your egg into four parts with
a ruler. That way you know here the middle is.
5 minutes
2.) Outline your design in pencil first
a.) Eventually we will be using paint on top of the pastels. Because
the pastels are waxy the paint will not want to stick to it. You
can even use white pastel because eventually we will paint our
eggs in black and the paint will not stick to the pastel.
b.) Show slides with the different ukrainian symbols that are
commonly used. Tie that back in with culture and history
c.) If you are having trouble with the pastels smudging you can use
crayon, you just need to press down harder.
3.) Once you are done your designs you can paint your egg black,
a.) When you paint your egg black you can brush over all the
designs you did
b.) However, limit the amount of times you go over it because you
don’t want to rub off the pastel.
4.) Let your egg dry on the drying racks
