Student Will

Teacher(s) Will

Students will choose one of their shapes

and trade with a person who painted a
different color than them.

Show teacher sample of work of heart.

Students will take out their shapes that
were previously cut out last class. Ask
class: do we sometimes feel happy and do
we sometimes feel sad? Does everyone
have these emotions? So can we
understand how other people feel when
they are happy or sad? Students will be
asked to give a piece of their heart to
another classmate.

2-3 minutes

Listen to teacher directions.

Review with students the goal for today.

Students choose a piece of construction
paper (dark or light blue for students
exploring their Blue Period, red or pink
for students exploring their Rose Period).
Students will arrange their shapes on
their piece of construction paper to create
an abstract heart. Students will then glue
down their pieces. Give students packets
of tissue paper with different values of
either red or blue. Have students
experiment with different texture to
further collage on to their works of heart.
