Students will analyze the 20th-century sculpture "Gandydancer's Dream" by Mark di Suvero. They will then use flat shapes and wire to create their own sculpture, which incorporates balance, rhythm, and movement.

Students will create a timeline outlining various groups' struggles for equal opportunity and create a 30-second radio or video public service announcement (PSA).

Students will analyze shapes and patterns in a photograph, hear stories about people who were forced to move to internment camps because of their ethnicity, and create drawings that tell a story about a young girl's life in an internment camp.

Students will read primary source documents about the U.S. internment of Japanese Americans following the bombing of Pearl Harbor and will examine various versions of a photograph by Dorothea Lange and explore how cropping can evoke different effects.

Students will view artwork in manuscripts pages depicting insects, animals, plants, flowers, and ornate writing, such as those found in the "Mira calligraphiae monumenta" in the Getty Museum. They will create a work of art that illustrates a figurative saying with a drawing of flora and/or fauna, and text written in ornate script.

This is a one-hour guided drawing lesson in which students will gain knowledge about composition and line. Students will build a personal drawing vocabulary by experimenting with various tools to create their own unique lines and marks using traditional art media. Students will create two original drawings in a one-hour "en plein air", or outdoor, session.

Students will examine the bust, "Portrait of Nadine Dumas", and create a portrait bust of a friend to give to the friend as a gift. Students will then discuss the modeling techniques used to communicate likeness and expression in a three-dimensional bust portrait.

Students will study the composition of landscape paintings, emphasizing space, depth, and the concepts of foreground, middle ground, and background. Students then create their own landscapes using principles of landscape composition.

Students create a nameplate and an original fairy tale book using an illuminated manuscript format.

Students will learn how French artists used lacquer panels in their furniture. They will then explore Asian lacquer panels and create their own Asian-inspired lacquer panel design. Students will then trade their designs and incorporate their classmates' designs into a new furniture design.

After reading "The Mysterious Giant of Barletta" by Tomie DePaola, about an ancient Roman statue that comes to life, students create a paper sculpture based on ancient Greek and Roman statues in the Getty Museum. They then write a narrative story told from the viewpoint of their sculpture.

Students will understand the use of personification as a way of expressing ideals. Students will transfer this understanding to the present by creating an allegorical depiction of a contemporary ideal or value inspired by precedents in classical Greece and the Neoclassical period.

Students examine primary resources, photographs by Dorothea Lange, and a U.S. map to understand the migrant experience during the Great Depression.

The class will use the book Dance on the Move: An Active Living Alphabet to explore and teach each other about creative dance. Together as a class, we will go through the activities in the active living alphabet to give students an overview of what is available to them (ex. “F: Floor patterns can be circular, curved, straight, or zigzag.”). Once we have gone through the alphabet together as a class, students will split up into partners
