Set expectations: Stay in seats. Be respectful to me and others. Try your hardest. Enjoy this project!
Set: Tell kids a personal story about a place you visited, include your perspective from where you were at the place.
Targets: Students will gain an understanding of perspective.
Input: Read a couple sample haikus. How to write a haiku: 5-7-5. Use interesting vocabulary! EX: Five syllables first, then seven in the middle, five more at the end
Modeling: Create a haiku as a class about the desk/chair.
Check for Understanding: Does everyone understand how to write a haiku?
Practice: Then tell kids to close their eyes. Think of a place. What do you see? smell? hear? how’s the weather? etc. Students now write their poems quietly.
Input: Discuss how to draw an eye from the perspective of someone seeing the subject matter in his or her poem. Use Utah as an example.
Modeling: Show techniques about how to use pastels. Tell clear instructions-no drawing on anything but the paper, stay in seats, work quietly.
Practice: Students now create their eyes.
Closure: Either display eyes or pick volunteers to read their poem and show their eye in front of the class. Discuss how perspectives are very unique and often unpredictable.
