Reflection:
This was by far my favorite lesson for Art 1. The students worked incredibly hard. They all seemed to
enjoy the projects because it meant something to them. They were also able to connect the reasoning

behind all of our letter art that weve been making. It has been great to see them excited and enjoying
what they are doing as well as learning about their own history.
However in the future I believe I need to review more each day with the class instead of letting them work
for the entirety of it. Overall, I think the lesson was great, especially for the group of students I had.
