Etchings Of Our Community by Janice Marsili, High School Art: This lesson was completed at David Brearley Art Department through a residency grant project funded by AIE and inspired by a printmaking class at ATi. Students worked with the Historical Society to create etchings, document the present day life of the town. They had great success and student support for the project publishing cookbooks, calenders, and even creating a printmaking exchange of "paper prayers" with an artist cooperative in Africa.
Doll Books and More- Integrating Art, Literacy, and Culture by Lonnie Stewart-Austin, grades 4-8 Art, Literacy, and Social Studies: This lesson inspired by ATi and NJ AIE artists teaches students about literacy and world cultures by having them create "doll books", books in the shape of a character. Students are also involved in a variety of art styles including necklace books, muraling, dance, and stained glass window making.
Rainbow Recognition by Patricia Marinaro, K-4 Art: This Lesson uses fairy tale stories as a starting point for creating art projects that teach students about the color wheel, the elements of design, how to see the cultural context of art, and to see the benefits of having a wide literacy in reading and the arts.
Newsprint Value Collage by Ellen Beth Nappen, High School Art: This lesson engages students in creating realistic collages by gluing many small pieces of newspaper of differing darkness and lightness to create an image. Students learn many traditional techniques in artmaking as well as a variety of unique approaches.
Generation Y Steps Up to Vote! by Harriette Washington-Williams, K-8 Music Class: The lesson was used as a component of the students' performance of the song "Mr. President" by LL Cool J and Wyclef John (
click here to hear a segment of the song). The students used the music, writing poems, and art projects involving designing sneakers and t-shirts, to analyze how current social and political issues influenced the artist and their lyrics. The project integrated music across the
curriculum (Music, Language Arts, Social Studies) and it addressed different learning styles.
