I'm really excited to see these portraits finish up. This has been a LONG process (believe me- your student will agree!) BUT- they are turning out AWESOME! First we gridded our portraits. Then we enlarged them and redrew it. Now we're painting them in ACRYLIC paint in awesome color schemes that THEY picked out.
In this project we also talked a little about identity. We defined Identity. Then we talked about how we might have different identities. Or how we might judge people- but not really know who they are. When we critique this we're going to ask if we feel that their self portraits show their true identity. Why or why not?
We're using the higher level thinking skills! Also, math skills! And color skills! And drawing skills! Those brains are working overtime!
