The final days in the unit were spent working on a project for students to showcase their knowledge of the Master Artists! Students had their choice of what they were going to make, and who they were going to work with. Group sizes were limited and their project had to incorporate some technology. Most students within the class made, Prezi's, google sites, voki's, videos, glogster pages or any combination of these.
Projects must include 5 of the 7 artists (one from each time period, and one choice) and be complete. Factual information must be given about each artist including their time period, life dates, country, titles of important works, and 6 other facts about the artist. Students were able to use facts they recorded onto their yellow artist data sheet, along with the custom search engine created to only bring up factual and accurate information related to each artist they search. The custom search engine was put on the blog for students to use. It can be found here: http://mmshumanities.blogspot.com/p/final-artist-search-engine.html
