Celeste's Palette Art lesson Grades 6-12 Design your own currency (digital or remote)

Design your own currency (money) art lesson, digital/remote or in person.

Uses minimal supplies or you can use Photshop or Google Draw. Is easily modifiable for grades 6-12 and has some activiites that can extend the length of the project or you can make it a one day project. Interdiscplinary as it has history, geography, elements of art, and critical thinking included. It has student examplars and links to more information as well as video clips. I have taught middle school kids this lesson and they really enjoyed it. Who doesn't like discussing and observing money?

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
I’ve taught middle school art for 7 years and private art lessons at community centers, parties and restaurants. I’ve painted over 100 murals and sell custom painted shoes, jackets, chairs, slate, etc. I wood burn (pyrography) and love creating with ceramics, drawing with value shading, figure drawing, painting, collage and more. I can handle basics to advanced levels. Find some of my work with Celestescreations Wix or find some on Instagram celesteartcreations .

MY TEACHING STYLE
Relaxed, light hearted. I like to asses prior knowledge before beginning to teach so that students are engaged and working at their capability. I like to visually and verbally assess art work often so students do not get frustrated. I like to incorporate art history and observation into all art lessons. I love visual examples. I show by doing. I like to build relationships with students and find common ground and modify lessons to incorporate their preferences. I like to have students critique their own art work using art vocabulary. I like to compliment their successes and offer feedback on ways to improve and ask them what they found successful and what they struggle with. I am always open to adding technology into the creation process.
