Rock Art Project
On Wed/Thu and Friday of this week, students will be focusing on telling their own personal story. First we will create a simple & small rock art poster. Then we will write a personal narrative history. Directions are included on this presentation. All work will be done in class.Unit 1 is, by far, the easiest and simplest unit we study. Remember, we are in a "flipped" class so the lectures and learning we would typically be doing in class are going to be on the website (more videos will be uploaded tonight and all of 1-3 will be completed this weekend - the test is Wed/Thu). Getting to know each other in a deeper and more meaningful way in the first two weeks will pay dividends down the road. When we are really sinking our teeth into the difficult portions of world history, we will be able to help each other. Plus, this can be a lot of fun. We certainly all work hard enough to enjoy a little time in class as well, right?

Learning Targets:
Understand the need for art in the human condition and its purpose in facilitating imagination, knowledge, and understanding.
Essential Questions:
1. Why did paleolithic peoples create cave rock art?

4. Present Rock Art Projects.
This day may seem like we aren't doing history, however it is my opinion that to do great work in this class we need to be comfortable. We need to know each other well. The project will help introduce everyone and share our diverse interests and talents. Plus, learning about leaving a legacy, art history, and taking time to be creative is always important in life. Remember, we are in a "flipped" classroom. This means that you will need to be working at home on Strayer and watching the video lectures. In class we are making big connections, working on writing, and working cooperatively to understand history deeply.
Assignment:
Read Chapters 1, 2, and 3. Use the Target Sheet. Learn the definitions.
