WHAT'S IN YOUR HEART?
During this unit students focused on recogonizing how they are feeling. After learning how artists use color to express how they are feeling students assigned a color to different emotions. Students then looked at the artwork of JimDine and then assigned a color to the three emotions they feel most often and "filled their heart" with those colors. Students learned about the technique of wax resist and after filling their heart using oil pastel they created a watercolor background.

Emotion Totem Poles
EMOTION TOTEM POLES
During this unit students focused on learning studying facial expressions to determine how others may be feeling. Throughout the lesson students learned different types of emotions, how to recognize them in themselves and others, and the possible causes behind emotions. Students used wood turns to isolate and study facial features and then looked at a totem pole form the Haidia cuture from the Penn Museum. They learned the legend behind this totem pole and studied the facial features of each totem. Students then utilized printmaking techniques to create a totem to add to the class totem pole of emotions. Students then wrote a legend for their totem explaining what caused them to feel the emotion they chose.
