Students will select a passage of approximately 2 3 paragraphs of text (ex: poem, song lyrics, etc.), which they will transcribe in Chancery Cursive on practice paper. Plan correct height, width, and spacing of lettering and margins surrounding the text. Emphasize the importance of border space and how this space creates a reverence for the written word. B. Practice passage on practice paper for sizing spacing, etc. Meet with teacher to review format before beginning final project. C. Cut parchment paper approximately 10 wide and 20 length. D. Treat parchment paper with tea bags or burn it with matches to create an ancient affect. E. Using broad underliner and fountain pen, begin hand lettering text in Chancery Cursive Italics, leaving margin space for embellishments and decorative borders. F. Upon completion, attach each end of finished parchment to precut, painted 12 dowels using tacky glue. G. Styrofoam balls or cardboard sconces may be cut, painted and attached to the ends of the dowels as an additional enhancement. H. Attach decorative string or yarn to the top dowel to hang scroll for final critique.

CLOSURE: The teacher will assess the student s understanding of text layout/design plan on an individual basis. First, teacher will approve passage choice of 2-3 paragraphs of text (ex: poem, song lyrics, etc.). Next, the students will plan out and practice text on white practice paper so that they have a visual understanding of correct proportions and sizes in layout. Upon completion of practice scrolls, a group critique will be held where students will be given the opportunity to collaborate ideas and share suggestions for improvements to final projects. Finally, criteria for a final grading rubric will be presented to the croup to clarify the objectives and requirements for this project. VI. ASSESMENT: The teacher created rubric will be utilized to evaluate the hand lettering, artistic process and creativity of the final calligraphic scroll. A group critique will be held to share completed project outcomes as well as discussion of grades/evaluations. Final scrolls will be displayed in showcase for public viewing.
