In this lesson, 4th grade students learned about a meditative form of doodling called Zentangles. Students created their own Zentangles using line and shape in repetitive black and white patterns. Students used a variety of thick and thin lines, as well as shape, to create contrast. Students also learned about value and mixed their own tints to add color to their work. While working, the students listened to meditative music to help them find their "Zen".

5th grade students learned about the Pop Artists Roy Lichtenstein and Andy Warhol. Students created a self portrait in the style of Lichtenstein using the characteristics of Pop Art. Students also learned about Benday Dots and how Lichtenstein exaggerated them in his artwork. Students also had a science lesson in which they learned about Benday dots and used a Microscope to discover them in magazines and newspapers. Great art and science connection!
