The Medicis and Humanism
This section builds on the European desire
to improve themselves with a focus on the
Medici. Ultimately they are woven into
every other figure in the unit so this is a
good starting point before getting into the
art.

CSI: Florence - This stations lab investigates
the causes and people behind the
assassination attempt on Lorenzo De Medici.
A History Mystery investigation into the
attempted assassination of Lorenzo de
Medici. (Common Core Ready - CCSS.ELALiteracy.RH.6-8.1)
In a church on Easter Sunday of 1478 an
attempt was made to wipe out the Medici
dynasty in one single attack. The attack was
only half successful. We know who the
attackers were but we do not know who
organized the clearly well-planned attack.
Students will attempt to find out by
decoding a secret letter, listening to witness
testimony and exploring why some people
might have been angry enough at the Medici
to commit murder. Suspects include a
powerful rival family, a former employee of
the Medici and the pope himself.
art throughout history followed by students
trying to draw using "modern" techniques
like realism and perspective which were
introduced in the Renaissance.

Notebooks, sketch book
Da Vinci's Notebook - students create a "lost"
page of Da Vinci's notebook for a modern
invention. Students create a mock page of Da
Vinci's notebook using a modern invention as
their focus. They sketch it from multiple
angles, write detailed sentences explaining
how it works (backwards) and the write a
paragraph to their patron explaining why this
would be a good invention to fund.
Sistine Chapel Lab - For this lab students sit
on the floor and complete their art. They
must hold the paper up above them to
simulate the painting of the Sistine Chapel.

b. Perspective in Art Lab - Here I show the
students a selection of paintings from the
Medieval period showing no perspective and
some from the Renaissance showing it
clearly. Then, the students are to draw the
classroom as THEY see it from their own
desk. (There are lines across our ceiling and
it is really fun to see them try to figure out
why everyone in the room says a different
line is straight.) Students may struggle to
draw showing any proper perspective. This
definitely, and quickly, teaches art
appreciation.

Renaissance Christmas - For this lab we
listen to a Medieval/Renaissance carol
(usually this one) and compare it to modern
carols. We then perform a dance
from http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/dihtm
l/diessay2.html. I do the Washerwoman's
Branle since it is by far the most ridiculous
(and pretty easy for students to learn).
