Students will design a detailed Media and Techniques Workshop and Lesson Plan for college juniors and seniors with limited to moderate
exposure to
(1) painting/drawing, (2) electronic art, (3) sculpture/fibers, (4) ceramics/pottery, (5) printmaking, (6) jewelry/metals, (7) photography, and
(8) collage/assemblage. The Lesson will be inspired by course content re the high school learner: pedagogical choices (Patterson, 2011, p. 6);
special education (Gerber & Guay, 2007); practice and theory (Bird, 2012); key ideas, techniques, cultural contexts, and creative
inspiration (Parks, 2015, p. 4); and assessment (Beattie, 1997).
Lesson Title*: Friendship

Medium*: jewelry/metals

Big Idea*: Friendship

Lesson Overview:
The purpose of this lesson is for students to learn about the history of a friendship bracelet. Students will also describe the qualities of a friend
and compare/contrast between a friend and best friend. Teaching this in a high school setting would be beneficial to the students because
students go through many things such as expressing themselves and opening up to their peers which can be hard for their age. Some students
never actually experienced having an actual friend so by doing this lesson, they will have the opportunity to know what the qualities to having
one are and it can be different for every person. By the end of the lesson, students will answer whether or not we can value or buy friendship as
compared to jewelry.
Key Concepts): What you want the students to know.*
1. paper cutting-triangular shape

2. How will this lesson allow for/encourage students to solve problems in divergent ways?
Studio time will be given to students to experiment in different thickness of papers (magazines, newspapers, drawing paper) to create beads, use
different colors, collaborate with their peers, creating poetry to use academic language, and additional modeling/demonstration for sequence of
steps visually.
3. How will you engage students in routinely reflecting on their learning?
Pair-share/critique/Gallery walk? Instructor circulating and asking students on ideas
4. How will you adapt the various aspects of the lesson for differently-abeled students?
