Introduction to Portraits
March 2, 2009
I found a very interesting website that could be use in a Grade Five class, Arts Education under the Visual Arts strand. The website is called Introduction to Portraits.
When students think of Art they probably suspect is drawing, painting, or working with clay, but not working on the computers. That is why I thought this game would be a neat way to change up the class. When students are finished their work whether it be a painting, drawing or a written assignment about art, they could engage in this interactive game.
Introduction to Portraits teaches about Portraits. It goes through, where you have to choose the portrait out of three different pictures. After you complete the first set of questions, it gives some information that is very easy to understand. I thought this website was very informative but was still very engaging.
Who what of thought you could bring computers into an Arts Education class!
