6th graders just finished a Japanese Printmaking Ukiyo-e Unit. We learned about the "floating world" and created our own "floating world" themes. Students wrote a haiku about their theme and then illustrated their haiku with some relief printmaking. We used styrofoam plates, pencils, pens and scratchboard tools. I made a powerpoint for an intro, I have The Great Wave poster displayed, we read an article, answered questions, wrote and made art! What a full week!
Reflections: I have discussed a collaboration with the Japanese teacher and we are super excited about an Arts Integration Unit for both disciplines!!! Love my school!
