Peer Lesson 5-Multicultural-2

Creatures

 For this project, 3 students had to cooperate to make the 3-part creature, in order to teach students how to work together and to appreciate the fact the not everyone is the same or does things the same way. Basically the activity promotes tolerance and acceptance of others.

On this creature, I drew the head part, the fold my drawing inside and passed to someone on my left or right as directed by the teachers, while the person next to me passed their drawing to me for me to draw the middle section of the body of the creature.

Finally to draw the legs and feet of the creature, all of the drawings were again passed in a different direction so a different student from the first two artists could complete the creature.



Extension Art Activity: Use this for Science to show how changes in genetics can cause changes in plants, animals, and people. For example, instead of using a Punnett Square to show how what type of individual is created when certain genetic factors are left out or put together, a drawing could be made by 3 different students to show what they think the resulting person, plant, or animal could look like.
