Middlers Express Future Goals Through Art
As one of their first virtual school assignments, students in my art classes were tasked with using things "right at their fingertips" for a creative art assignment.
After tracing part of their body, students drew or wrote components of their life that they are already proud of doing on their arms. On the hand portion, students drew or wrote future goals or accomplishments.
As a teacher, I was impressed by the students' results. Compared to being in school, this assignment presented some unforeseen obstacles - as I was not able to see their work and the students were not able to see one another's work until the products were finished. But the students rose the challenge and, as you can see from their work below, they have a lot of exciting things to look forward to in the future!
