B). This lesson is relevant because at this age because it gives the students a chance to
work on motor skills such as cutting and keeping straight lines. Writing out reflections and
the use of controlling scissors is a skill they will be working on and need. When putting
together these looms it requires the students to be patient and take their time. This
independent project allows students to push themselves and work on skills they possess.
While students are going through the insecure and impatience motions through projects
peers can help them through it and help them out. We as teachers can be the adult
mentors that help show them they can do it and let them ask questions to figure it out. At
this age they are also good at bouncing back from those low moments and will push on.
They may undertake more than they can handle successfully but are also very self-
critical. That becomes prevalent when students are reflecting on their projects.
Central Focus (creating, presenting, interpreting, responding, and/or relating art to
context)
Weaving in Mexican and Southwestern Countries
Weaving is a technique used all around the world in many different ways and forms.
There are many forms of art that function as art itself and has an actual functionality to
them. Traditional Mexican falsa blankets offer functional beauty. They can be used for
anything such as saddle blankets and were sometimes hung in doorways to separate
rooms. Certain designs came to be recognized and associated with certain areas for
example, the Saltillo blankets are named for the capital city of the Mexican state of
Coahuila. They were also worn by both men and women, draped across the shoulders. It
is important for students to learn skills such as weaving for many uses in their everyday
life and to know more about the history behind them.
Essential Questions (provocative, engaging, critical)
How do we see culture reflected in everyday objects?
How can art be functional?
Why should you know about other cultures and objects relevance?
Possible Integration
Art History
o Examples of past and current artistic styles that use cultural relevance and
movements in their work.
History
o Learning about the Mexican and Southwestern cultures and their use of materials.

Accommodations for Special Populations
For the student with emotional disturbances, accommodations will be made. I will focus on
getting to know the student’s comfort zone and activities to keep them on task.
I will be giving the student leadership roles in the classroom so that they can have
something productive to do and feel more important in the class.
I will give encouraging word such as being a great classroom helper and giving thanks
for being on task with activities.
For the times that they need to stay in their seat but have a hard time I will allow them
to engage in a quiet activity they enjoy until they are ready for the next activity.
During class when I notice them getting agitated, as a class we will together do some
calming strategies such as taking deep breaths and counting to ten.
Their seat will be located right next to my desk, so I can stay in close proximity.
