Projet d'arts visuels: Le Griffonnage (Doodling); Junior/Intermédiaire

Fun and accessible Art project for ALL learners! Tried and tested in my junior Immersion classes. -NO PREP!-

Perfect for distance and face-to-face learning.

Do you have a doodler in your class who would benefit from some recognition of their often under appreciated talent? If so, this is THE ultimate project for them.

This Doodling project was very popular and successful with my immersion kids. Best thing: it was accessible to all students in the sense that nobody needed to be enrolled in after-school art lessons or have any particular type of artistic talent to succeed.

Doodling is an actual form of art. In fact there are many doodle artists around the world. According to researchers, doodling helps to alleviate stress, increase concentration and memory. It also helps students visualize ideas and live in the moment. Many famous people have been notorious “doodlers”. This fun project is going to hopefully be as much of a hit with your class as it was with my class. Many of my art anxious students became a lot less anxious and more open to art by the time we finished this project and had our in-class Doodle art exhibition.

In this package you will find:

• An introduction about Doodling

• An opportunity to analyze a work by doodle artists (2 known doodlers, 1 anonymous doodler).

• Students have the opportunity to search up and analyze a doodle artwork of their choice. There is a table with questions to guide student art analysis.

• Some reflection questions before students get started on creating their own Doodle art masterpiece + guidelines for their own Doodle art masterpiece. (I do mention to students that although doodling is often unplanned art, this project is an evaluated one, therefore some planning without infringing on creativity is needed for this project).

• An evaluation rubric.

I have only tried this project with my immersion grades 5 and 6 students. If you have a Core class, this project should be able to work- but you may need to explain the French in more detail.
