Week 1Lesson 1Introduction and discussion of chapters 1-4Introduction and discussion of chapters 1-4 and Spar Debate sparked by: "Ms. Hussey listened carefully to kids’ ideas and didn’t care about right and wrong answers." Spar Statement: In school correct answers are most important for learning to progress. Position 1: Agree with the above statement. Position 2: Disagree with the above statement. Creative thinking and innovative ideas are most important for learning.Week 2Lesson 2Discussion of chapters 5-8Discussion of chapters 5-8 and Spar Debate sparked by: "Spar Question: What makes an object a work of art?" Position 1: A work of art is something that is created by an artist to be a thing of beauty and to communicate an idea or ideas to people.

The artist doesn’t matter.Week 3Lesson 3Discussion of chapters 9-12Discussion of chapters 9-12 and Spar Debate sparked by: Spar Question: Who should determine a true work of art? Position 1: The experts. These are people who have spent their lives and careers studying, discussing, researching, and looking at art. Position 2: Everyday regular people.

No, you need to have actual facts before pursing a plan both for safety and keep from mistakes.Week 5Lesson 5Discussion of chapters 17-20Discussion of chapters 17-20 and Spar Debate sparked by: "They were examining art with a toughness and intensity usually seen in the buyers of new cars or electronics."

Spar Question: Do things in life — both good and bad — happen for a reason? Position 1: Yes they do.
