Landscape Drawing

Students will create a landscape. Students will include a foreground, middle ground, and background. The landscape will include a lightsource on the left which will create shadowing on the right side of the trees and make a shadow on the grass on the right side of the trees. Students will use more than one color in drawing to show depth . Students will have a critique within their group that will allow for revision.

Landscape Drawing
	4 (N/A)	3 (N/A)	2 (N/A)	1 (N/A)
General Requirements	4 The student created a landscape drawing in colored pencil that included a foreground, middle ground and background. Light source is used and depth is shown by drawing going from dark to light and larger to smaller.	3 The student created a landscape drawing in colored pencil that included a foreground, middle ground and background. Light source is somewhat used and depth is somewhat shown by drawing going from dark to light and larger to smaller.	2 The student created a landscape drawing in colored pencil that included a foreground, middle ground and background. Lights source is not used and depth is not shown by drawing going from dark to light and larger to smaller.	1 The student created a landscape drawing in colored pencil but did not include a foreground, middle ground and background. Light source is not used and depth is not shown by drawing going from dark to light and larger to smaller.
Accuracy of Landscape	4 The landscape is clearly drawn with a foreground, middle ground and background. Trees in the foreground are largest and get smaller and thinner as they go to the background.	3 The landscape is clearly drawn with a foreground, middle ground and background.	2 The landscape is drawn with a foreground and background but no middle ground is visible. Trees are not larger in the front and getting smaller and thinner as it goes to the background.	1 The landscape is drawn with only one level (the landscape only includes one of the following: a foreground, middle ground or background).
Colors	4 Colors were applied in a neat and creative manner. Colors were evenly and consistently applied (there are no "blotchy" dark or light areas). Darker colors were used in the foreground and get lighter in the middle ground and the lightest in the background. Trees are darkest in the foreground and get lighter in the background.	3 The application of the color is fairly neat and creative. There is variation in color from dark to light used in the foreground, middle ground and background. Trees vary in color.	2 The application of the color is not very neat or creative. Little use of darkness to lightness is shown from foreground to background. Trees have little variation in color.	1 The application of color was not done in a neat or creative manner. Colors do not change in lightness or darkness from foreground to background. All hills and trees are the same color.
Review and Reflection	4 Foreground, middle ground, and background is evident within their drawing and color shows depth. Darkest in front and gets lighter in the back. Light source is evident and consistent, as well as shading of trees. Students participate in group conversation and revise their work so that all requirements are included.	3 Foreground, middle ground, and background is evident within their drawing. Color shows depth. It mostly is darkest in front and gets lighter in the back. Light source is evident and mostly consistent, as well as shading of trees. Students participate in group conversation and revise their work so that all mostly all of the requirements are included.	2 Foreground, middle ground, and background is somewhat evident within their drawing. Color shows depth. It somewhat is darkest in front and gets lighter in the back. Light source is somewhat evident and mostly consistent, as well as shading of trees. Students participate in group conversation and somewhat revise their work so that all mostly all of the requirements are included.	1 Foreground, middle ground, and background are not evident within their drawing. Color does not go from darkest in front and get lighter in the back. Light source is not evident and consistent. No shading of trees. Students participate in group conversation but do not revise their work so that all requirements are included.
