Description
This lesson plan from the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art involves K-5 students looking at artworks and discussing what they observe. Students then participate in structured partner conversations where they ask questions to learn about each other’s lives and experiences. Using what they learn, each student creates a drawing based on their partner’s responses rather than their own perspective. The activity guides students to think carefully about how to represent another person’s ideas and experiences visually. Overall, the lesson focuses on observation, discussion, and creating an artwork based on information gathered from a peer.
