What better way to collaborate then with an art project, so we started the school year off with a class mural.
I had each class vote on an image that would represent their class, and then I created that image using masking tape over a square board. Students then chose a color to represent themselves and stamped their hands over the board.
When the paint dried, I peeled it away to reveal a white outline of the image they chose. Students then signed their names within the white lines. This represents our classes choice to work together as a team, and remember we are apart of something greater.
This reminder is not only for the art room, but for life. When we remember our perspectives are only one of many, we can work together towards a greater goal.
