Connecting
Enduring Understanding-
Through art-making, people make meaning by investigating and developing awareness of perceptions, knowledge, and experiences.
Make an artwork about a place that has importance to you. Make connections by investigating why this place has significance and how you will represent that visually.

You will draw, collage, and write and create about a place of your choice.
