Phase 2 of the project, “Turning Ideas into Images” is well underway at Humboldt High School. Mr. Elizondo discussed what makes a great ofrenda to his class.
Here’s the work that he was discussing. It is from a student in another class, and still in production.
Armed with ideas, the students surveyed available material in the art storage room for items they could use in their work.
Lastly, the first week videos by the students was just posted on the blog. We watched them as a class, and predictably, some student enjoyed them while others cringed at seeing themselves . . .
As a teacher, are you interested in having your class follow along with these high schools? It’s not too late!
Teacher’s Guide for this project is here.
