Introduction
VA.912.F.3.7 : Create a body of collaborative work to show artistic cohesiveness, team-building, respectful compromise, and time-management skills.
What does the ocean look like to your group?
How did your group work together to build a cohesive sea box?
Do you think your group could have done the project faster? If so what could you have do different to do so?
Task
Students will get in groups of four and create a aquarium in a shoe box.
Process
Each student in the group will select one of the four mediums presented and create different elements in the box. Example one student can use acrylic for the animals of the aquarium while another student used charcoal for the background. Students will have four class periods to complete the assignment. Students can use https://jamonkey.com/cardboard-box-aquarium/ to look up a step-by-step tutorial on how to make an aquarium in the shoe box. The only thing they will have to add is the different mediums to the different elements.
Evaluation
Students will be graded based on creativity, teamwork seen in class, cohesiveness in the aquarium, and neatness.
Conclusion
This web quest will be used in Art 101 using the learning objective VA.912.F.3.7. This project will focus on teamwork and students being able to express themselves while taking others' opinions and critiques into account while making an aquarium in a box using different mediums to express their different ways of creativity. Which is why the enrichment activity that will be enforced is social and emotional learning. With this assignment students will interact with each other and develop emotional management during teamwork.
