Description
Class Experience
As a history major, I often found the raw material dry, especially if my professors or teaching assistants lacked enthusiam for the subject. But as I connected historical events to art and art history, it helped the dry facts come to life and play out in my mind like a movie. I hope this class makes that connection for my students, bringing color and life to the events of our past.
Each art project can be accomplished using whatever art materials the learners have on hand. I will demonstrate using markers, crayons, colored pencils, watercolor paints, and waterproof markers such as a Sharpee.
50 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
Many events in world history include bias, bigotry, and violence. As an experienced teacher of elementary aged children, I tell these stories in a way that is appropriate, and on level for this age. I try to focus on the positivity, resiliance, and intellegence of the women in these stories, and avoid overt and mature in their content. I believe in introducing history to the very young, to lay the foundation for a deeper understanding of world history in high school and beyond.
