Creative Educator Workshop Series #2: Animal Adaptations

Tuesday, March 16 2021 4:00 PM

The Outside the Lens Arts Integration Workshops explore the language of visual and media art through our project design process, supporting teachers with the skills to integrate media arts into their core curriculum. Workshops will address English Language Arts and Science standards alongside VAPA and NCA standards. By leveraging arts education resources and expertise through this professional development opportunity, teachers can provide more meaningful arts experiences for students.

During these participatory workshops we will explore the concepts of visual and media arts within a classroom setting, and how we can apply these skills to various curriculum to amplify students’ voices, both as critical consumers and conscious creators of media. Participants will walk away with an arts integrated project and lesson plan to use with students.

Workshop #2: Animal Adaptations

How do different environments affect how animals adapt to their environment?Students examine the ways that animals have evolved and adapted to their different environments through photographic examples. Using photography and digital art students think about their own environment that they inhabit regularly (either their home or school) and design an animal that is adapted to that environment.
