Topic: The colours of Emotions 1st-3rd ESO
Teacher: Carmen Criado
2. C for Content
|
The purpose
of this unit is to raise students´ awareness of how images can be manipulated
in order to develop emotions, using one basic element such as colour.
Composition,
lighting and the other elements of an image are necessary. Each play their
role in creating a well-balanced image, but none of them can capture emotion
like colour.
|
6. Activities
|
Colour
families affect mood.
The teacher
introduces the images, paintings, and advertisements and shows the use of
colours in sections with pauses for comment and discussion.
Teachers con
start by explaining various points during the viewing so that students
understand some concepts and ask questions and follow this with stopping at
relevant points.
Questions
for teachers:
What colours do you see?
What are the
main colours?
Are some
more important tan others?
Why do you
think certain colours are used?
|
7. Tasks
|
We
will choose an image and simplify in its principal lines discovering the most
important areas of the image.
These areas will be cover with different
colour families.
Students
will be able to adjust Hue, Saturation and Temperature.
Using warm colours, you can create sizzling images
filled with anger, romance or excitement. Using cool colours help create
feelings of calm and serenity.
|
10.
Resources and materials
|
Students
will be using tools they are familiar with (crayons, felt pens..).
In this case we want to focus on different
group of colour, choosing the most appropriate colour family to represent the
new personality, mood or atmosphere.
