Students will describe their own immigrant story through works of art in fabric that will be exchanged, then finish their partners' artwork. Students will display their work to continue a discussion on immigration. Students will be evaluated on their completed work of art, their artist statement, and their presentation to the class.
Students will increase vocabulary and historical fact knowledge. Students will create two major artworks that demonstrate their comfort level with and understanding of art and immigration. Students will exhibit completed artworks in an exhibition. Students will increase vocabulary and strategies for observing and describing what they see.
