Jackson Pollock en acción by Barbara Tillman

Build BackgroundHelp students use their knowledge of art, and in particular painting, to visualize the biography. Build interest by asking a question such as the following: ¿Qué clase de cuadros les gusta mirar? Read the title and author and talk about the cover photograph. Point out the chapter heads and the timeline. Tell students that this is a biography, so it describes events in a real person’s life, written by another person.

Introduce the TextGuide students through the text, noting important ideas, and helping with unfamiliar language and vocabulary so they can read the text successfully. Here are some suggestions:

Page 4: Explain that Jackson Pollock’s early experiences likely inspired his interest in art. Suggested Language: Pollock se crió cerca del Gran Cañón, el que se ve en la foto. Ask: ¿En qué aspecto el Gran Cañón pudo habe sido una inspiración para Pollock?

Page 5: Tell students that Pollock moved to Los Angeles with his family. En Los Ángeles, Pollock obtuvo permiso para entrar en la Escuela Secundaria de Artes Manuales.

Page 6: Tell students that next, Jackson went to study in New York. Have students look at the painting. En la Liga de los Estudiantes de Arte, Pollock analizaba el trabajo de otros pintores, a la vez que buscaba su propio estilo. Ask: ¿Cómo describirían el estilo de Pollock?

Pages 8–9: Explain that several life changes helped Pollock fi nd his own technique. Pollock se enamoró y se fue a vivir al campo, donde disfrutaba explorando la naturaleza. En su estudio, empezó a dejar gotear la pintura sobre las telas. Ask: ¿En qué se diferencia la técnica de Pollock de la de los demás pintores?

Page 14: Explain that the timeline lists important events in Pollock’s life and career.

Ahora, vuelvan al comienzo de la biografía y averigüen cómo fue la vida y la carrera de Jackson Pollock.

ReadHave students read silently while you listen to individual students read aloud. Support their understanding of the text as needed.

Remind students to use the Analyze/Evaluate Strategy and to think about the text and form an opinion about it.

Discuss and Revisit the TextPersonal ResponseInvite students to share their personal responses to the biography.Suggested language: Imaginen que son críticos de arte. ¿Qué ven, piensan o sienten cuando ven un cuadro de Jackson Pollock? ¿Estaban equivocados los críticos a los que no les gustaban sus trabajos? ¿Por qué sí? ¿Por qué no?

Ways of ThinkingAs you discuss the text, help students understand these points:

Thinking Within the Text Thinking Beyond the Text Thinking About the Text

• Jackson Pollock studied art in school and on his own.

• Jackson Pollock noticed, and was inspired by, the natural world around him.

• Jackson Pollock became known for his unique style of abstract painting.

• Artistic expression is personal.

• While an artist wants others to like his work, he must fi rst please himself.

• The style and color of the chapter headings fi ts with the theme of artistic expression.

• The descriptive language helps the reader “see” what the author describes.

• The author includes phonetic pronunciations to help readers pronounce diffi cult names.

Choices for Further Support• Fluency Invite students to participate in a readers’ theater. Encourage them to

use punctuation and content as signals for pausing, and to read at a pace that is appropriate to the text and purpose.

• Comprehension Based on your observations of the students’ reading and discussion, revisit parts of the text to clarify or extend comprehension. Remind students to go back to the text to support their ideas.

• Phonics/Word Work Provide practice as needed with words and word parts, using examples from the text. Remind students that many longer words have Greek or Latin roots. The prefi x ad- in the word admiraba on page 6 is also a Latin word that means para or hacia. Other words that use this prefi x include admitir, adición, adquirir, and aditivo.

Writing about ReadingCritical ThinkingHave students complete the Razonamiento crítico questions on Hoja reproducible 10.7.

RespondingHave students complete the activities at the back of the book, using their Cuaderno del lector. Use the instruction below as needed to reinforce or extend understanding of the comprehension skill.

Target Comprehension SkillAuthor’s Purpose

Target Comprehension Skill Remind students that they determine an author’s

purpose for writing a selection by examining details from the text. Model how to add details to the Graphic Organizer, using a “Think Aloud” like the one below:

Think Aloud

En la página 9, la autora dice que Pollock vendió quince óleos y varios trabajos en papel a un precio de entre 25 y 750 dólares en la galería de Peggy Guggenheim. En la página 11, dice que en un artículo publicado en una revista sobre arte se mencionó a Pollock junto a Picasso, un pintor muy famoso. Estos detalles sustentan el propósito de la autora de demostrar que Pollock fue un gran artista.

Practice the SkillHave students share their examples of another biography in which the author’s purpose was to show readers how important that person was.

Writing Prompt: Thinking Beyond the TextHave students write a response to the prompt on page 6. Remind them that when they think beyond the text, they use their personal knowledge to reach new understandings.

Assessment Prompts• The main purpose of this biography is to

________________________________________________________________.

Grado 4, Unidad 2: ¿Entiendes lo que quiero decir?

Nombre Fecha

La exhibición de Pollock fue la primera exhibicion de un solo artista

estadounidense en la galería.

Llamó a Pollock un “pintor de acción” para describir su enérgica

presencia y sus movimientos mientras pintaba.

He visto los cuadros de Rothko. Me gusta el arte abstracto porque creo

que es más interesante que las pinturas realistas.

La autora explica que los críticos de arte que critican a los artistas

pueden ser duros si no les gusta el arte. Los museos también pueden

rechazar nuevos estilos de arte. Artistas como Jackson Pollock trabajan

mucho físicamente.

5 Después de mudarse a Los Ángeles en 1928 con su madre

y sus dos hermanos mayores, Charles y Sanford, Pollock

obtuvo permiso para entrar en la Escuela Secundaria de Artes

Manuales. Allí, Pollock aprendió lo que es el arte abstracto,

que se concentra en la forma y los colores, en vez de las

ilustraciones realistas. Este tipo de arte le resultó atractivo al

joven pintor, posiblemente porque le permitía expresar sus

propios sentimientos e ideas.

Pronto Charles partió a Nueva York para estudiar en la Liga

de los Estudiantes de Arte. ¡Él también tenía talento artístico!

A los 18 años, Jackson Pollock abandonó la escuela

secundaria.
