  • Projector or smartboard for displaying the painting
  • Handouts with background information on Caravaggio

Lesson Steps

Introduction (10 minutes)

  • Hook: Begin with a brief storytelling session about Caravaggio's life and his influence on art. Highlight his dramatic use of light and shadow.
  • Objective: Share the learning outcomes and explain that today students will explore one of Caravaggio’s famous paintings.

Exploration (15 minutes)

  • Visual Analysis: Display "The Cheaters" on the smartboard. Ask students to observe quietly for 2 minutes.
  • Guided Discussion: Facilitate a conversation using these prompts:
    • What do you notice first in the painting?
    • How does Caravaggio use light and shadow?
    • What story do you think this painting is telling?

Explanation (10 minutes)

  • Art Techniques: Explain Caravaggio’s use of chiaroscuro (light-dark contrast) and how it helps to focus the viewer's attention on certain parts of the painting.
  • Theme Analysis: Discuss the theme of deception and card games, and how these elements are portrayed in the painting.

Activity (20 minutes)

  • Creative Task: Have students create their own artwork using pencil and paper. Encourage them to use strong contrasts between light and dark, inspired by Caravaggio’s technique.
  • Art Vocabulary: Provide a list of art terms (e.g., contrast, composition) for students to use in describing their work.

Conclusion (5 minutes)

  • Showcase: Allow students to share their art with the class and use one or two art terms in their description.
  • Reflection: Ask students to reflect on how understanding light and shadow can change the way we see and interpret artwork.

Assessment

  • Participation: Observe student engagement during discussions and activities.
  • Art Creation: Evaluate student artworks based on their use of light and shadow, and their ability to articulate their artistic choices.

Extensions

  • Homework: Encourage students to research another Caravaggio painting and write a short paragraph on its theme.
  • Class Discussion: In a future class, compare Caravaggio’s techniques with another artist from a different period.

This lesson plan incorporates the exploration of art history while engaging students in creative expression, thereby scaffolding their understanding of both historical context and artistic techniques.
