Lesson Plans
Paper Mending
Students will create a short warm-up drawing, which will then be torn apart or "messed up" in some other way. They will then use the pieces of this drawing to create a new artwork. Students will experience creating art from something that was originally intended to be something else, and view a "mistake" in a new light by thinking creatively and constructively to problem solve.
Color - Mini Lesson
This is a short lesson based on three resources about color as political protest and the history of color theory. The lesson incorporates a discussion about these resources and then has students participate in a choice of two art activities, either creating a new color or creating an art piece using colors the student doesn't often use. These activities incorporate reflection that relates to the themes of the resources.
