An Interactive and Digital Arts History/Science Lesson at School 9

At School 9 WP Art Professor-in-Residence Simone Sandler worked with second grade students and their teacher to create an interactive and digital art history/science lesson using in Google Classroom and exploring the Mona Lisa and the protective masks of the COVID 19 pandemic. 

First they read about Leonardo DaVinci. Next, students had to create a portrait of themselves with a mask.  Examples of Mona Lisa with a mask were shown to the students.  While creating their masks the students had to design an original mask indicating their uniqueness.

To do this lesson, students used markers at home on plain white paper. Photographs of the students and their art works were taken during the live Google Classroom session.

Here are some examples below:
