Subject: Art, 5x Day Lesson (45 min.) Prepared By: Benjamin E. Hoffman, Student Art Teacher
Big Idea: Throughout time and across cultures, public artworks have developed as a direct response to society.
Key Concepts:
Stencils have proved to modernize the traditional means of printmaking onto public spaces.
Repetition can enhance the meaning of an artwork as well as its importance in society.
Essential Questions:
Modern printmaking techniques have evolved into stencil making which has eluted to both legal and
illegal artworks such as graffiti. Does the legitimacy of an artwork affect its importance or value?
Does the value of an artwork decrease the more times in which it has been reproduced? Why?
Specific Objectives:
Students will first take a photo of themselves and upload it to create a stencil.
Students will trace their printed out image of themselves to then transfer onto the Styrofoam plate.
Carefully using an X-Acto Knife, students will cut out the positive space to reveal their stencil.
Students will print both the Positive and Negative of their stencil using both a traditional and modern
approach to printmaking.
o Using their stencil as an inking plate, students may choose any available colors to print from
and onto any appropriate tonal paper a minimum of three times.
o Students will each individually print their stencil using spray paint onto black paper to expose
the negative.
The final print will be a collaborative piece where each students stencil would be arranged at the
discretion of the class to simulate an actual arts community.

Motivation/Engagement/The Hook:
Every other day, students will complete a Bell Ringer which will allow students
to settle down as they enter the classroom. Examples include writing a
reflection in response to the tutorial video they watched on Shepard Fairey
and his artmaking process. This constant review would act as a formative
assessment for the teacher. Following the completion of the students
transferred image onto their Styrofoam plate, students may begin to carefully
cut away the positive shapes to reveal their stencil.
Formative Assessment:
The culmination of this lesson will result in a collaborative art piece that will
resemble the many hands that go into constructing a large scale print or
reproduction process as mimicked by Shepard Fairey. Students will be
provided with a large sheet of paper to then arrange their stencils in a way
best deemed by the class. The goal is to promote a collective art community
where students can make decisions based on one anothers responses rather
than that of the teachers. All other prints would be turned in along with their
original stencil for grading.
