  3. Jim Lambie was born in Bellshill. Scotland in 1964 and studied at the Environmental Department in Glasgow school of Art which placed an emphasis on context and placement (something which has heavily influenced all his work to date). Working most famously using vinyl tape in now iconic works such as ‘Zobop', Lambie, one time DJ and band member of The Boy Hairdressers who went on to become Teenage Fanclub, finds his key influence music and more specifically pop . History

  4. Vocabulary:creativity- Using ideas in a different way, content- that which makes up your essay. • Directions: • 1. Show students Zobop. ( IDEA step - identify) • 2. Ask students to brain storm onto paper everything this makes them think about. ( IDEA step - discuss) • 3. Give table groups colored rolls of electrical tape (any colored, rolled tape will work) to share and each student a piece of cardboard or construction paper. (IDEA step - envision) • 4. Have students create their own design onto the cardboard. (20 min.) • 5. Have students fold their notebook page into four tall columns. • 6. Have students write each of the following four questions into the top of each column: • Why did you design your art work this way? • How does it make you feel? • 3) What do you want the art viewer to think about while viewing it? • 4) If you could cover any object or surface with this design, what would it be and why?

  5. 7. Give students time to share within their table groups using timed pair share. Then vote within their groups on the one to share with the entire class. (IDEA step - assess) 8. The winning vote gets to share and display with the class. 9. Praise their positives! Display all of the children’s artwork within the class. Other writing activities: Have students create a design with four common colors of electrical tape: red, blue, green, yellow. When they are done with their design they should research different color words by using dictionary, internet, thesaurus and crayon boxes. Have students write all of the different words for that color on the pieces of the corresponding tape of their design. Example: green tape would have words: emerald, forest, army, and lime. (Sharpies make great tools for this activity) Folder designs: Student will cut 6 pieces of each of the four colors of tape. They will create a design on the front of their covers. Then students will review kinds of words. Nouns-person, place, thing or idea, verb- action words, adjectives- describing words and adverbs- describe verbs. Assign a color for each kind of word. You will write a verb on each strip of pink tape you used. You will write a noun on each strip of blue tape you used. Follow the same for the other two colors.

  6. Expanding sentences: Have students copy a simple sentence onto their papers. The dog is barking. Have them cut it apart. Have students write two adjectives onto colored tape strips of the same color. Then they will create better more descriptive by continuously adding each part of speech. The big, brown, shaggy dog is barking. Then they will add adverbs. The big, brown, shaggy dog is barking loudly. Art connection: Have students bring in an old item of theirs like old ruler, pencil sharpener, eraser. Have them cover the item using their design in colored electrical tape. Ask students to write an essay describing why they decorated that item in the manner that they did. Art lesson can follow IDEA concepts: Identify, Discuss, Envision, and Assess.
