Guess what we are making?

Final 5 minute lesson of Term 1 for Grade 6

Our final 5 minute lesson for Grade 6 is on Connections.  In Literacy we are asked to read text and be able to make connections to our self, another text or the world.  In Art it is much the same.  Can you think of an artwork that you have a connection to already.  For example: I really like the artwork The Scream by Edvard Munch and have even seen it in person.  When doing art projects about The Scream I am reminded of the time I visited the Glenbow Museum in Calgary and saw The Scream prints on display.
Can you find an artwork that is has a connection to the artwork you just created?  This connection would be similar to text to text connections. For example: you created an artwork about hockey, can you find another artwork using the same idea?
Google Image search Canadian First Nations artist or artworks and see if you can find a Canadian artist that has created an artwork similar to yours.  Print it off and write down the details of the artwork, such as Title, Medium, and Artist name.
