This document outlines a project for students to create sculptural masks based on Aesop's Fables. Students will learn about mask traditions in different cultures and how masks relate to those cultures. They will research cultures like African, Renaissance, Surrealist, Asian, and Greek to design their masks. Students will create clay or papier-mache prototypes and use skills like sketching, photography, and video production to convey messages from the fables. The masks will be displayed for a play performance, combining the art project with a drama class.

The purpose of this lesson plan was to integrate art and language arts. Students were to narrate the story The Legend of the Indian Paintbrush, by displaying a use of symbols on a collage.
A selection of integrated experiential art workshops developed and taught by teaching artist, Sarah Stone, at middle and high schools in the San Fernando and Conejo Valleys, Los Angeles metro area.
This project is the result of a in-service training European Diversity course that took place in March-April 2011 in Riga (Latvia). The aim of the course was to help teachers to develop intercultural competences by exposing us to European Diversity Education through language, music and cartoons or movies. Our team decided to work around this last one.
In the vibrant world of children and students, creativity serves as a powerful tool for self-expression and exploration. Drawing, a universally cherished art form, becomes a gateway for young minds to delve into their imagination and translate their thoughts onto paper. This compilation of drawing topics and ideas aims to ignite the spark of creativity in kids and students, providing a diverse range of themes to inspire their artistic endeavours.
Lecture: Using the Studio Habits of Mind to Help Students Create Ceramic Works
The teachers of Bruce Guadalupe Community School created a parallel curriculum that used the work of ceramist Luz Angela Crawford as inspiration for students to create various ceramic pieces. During this presentation I will share with you examples of parallel curriculum planning, student work, and student success.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

1. Project Aesop How to create sculptural masks for a play using Aesop's Fables as the theme? “Why do different cultures use masks, how do they relate to the culture they are in and to self?”
2. How can we utilize various media and images to convey messages of morality and ethics. Students will learn: How to Create sculpture in various media: Clay, Papier-mâché, drafting and sketching, art history,video to express ideas. Students will critique and evaluate their work and the work of their piers throughout the project.
3. African Mask, Students can do sketches that will enable them to study the shapes and forms. These can be used as drafts for further work. (7)
4. Take a look at different cultures and how they construct masks that are used in ritual, drama, and decoration. African mask could be an avenue of inspiration. Students could choose a culture to research and to Build their prototypes from(4). Other Cultures and periods could include :The Renaissance, Surrealism, Asian, Greek. Students will create and present a power point,(5) this will provide opportunity for critique and revision.
6. Surrealism and animals: a short research papers can accompany images that are sketchedor created in Photoshop.(5) Students would be encouraged to combine s and various animals.
9. Students would learn various 3D skills : Clay, Papier-mâché, Cut paper. These would be used to Create models, display prototype, and the masks that would be photographed for posters forthe play. Students would be part of the process of deciding the best materials and in the decisions of the final exhibition, perhaps in the library? Other Exhibition possibilities could include off campus sight, or even outside at the outdoor classroom in conjunction with Drama giving a performance in the ampatheater, using the masks, very Greek! Let students problem solve these issues.
11. Use Video to present performance art in a “Music Video”Students could take various aspects of video production and compose a video that looked at Aesop's Fables and how art is used to communicate ideas and morality. Check out Moby or Tom Petty, Collaboration with Music and Drama would be important aspects of the project.(2) Also possibilities of collaboration with Language teachers exploring other cultures: French, Spanish, Chinese. Take advantage of Kiski’s international diversity, use their own culture as inspiration.
12. Moby! Let students choose hip and current musicians to use as inspiration to get at the content of the fables. Let the students write and reflect on their feelings and thoughts regarding Aesop's Fables. (8)
13. Hyper Realism: suggest periods of art that would let the students learn art history at the same time gaining inspiration for their project.
14. Photo shop of stills of masks in various settings. Sketches of the masks, mockups, and design work could be intermediate deliverables.This project would be great for my Studio Art class and would coincide with Mr.K’s Drama class in the winter quarter, with final exhibition and play at the end of the term. Other deliverables could be a simple bibliography, of sighting of source material.(6)
