Next the Artist Project

I had kids pick a topic
and research either
an artist or an art career, then do a presentation or some art that
showed understanding of the topic.



This class is mostly ELL, SPED, and 504 kids. So I gave
them some activities out of the "great artists" book I
have.

Here we have a Paul Klee sculpture.

Then I had some kids that pick architecture as their topic, so I got a coliseum and a space needle.

Several kids really got into the robot art of Nam June Paik http://www.paikstudios.com/

In addition to the projects, I got a lot of power point presentations... which ~now~ I am wanting to discourage, because all they do is COPY stuff from the internet into them and don't put a lot of thought into the content.
