four doll challenges |
Because I am an art educator, I have a different point of view when
it comes to “doll challenges.” Add just a few more steps plus an
assessment form and “presto chango,” you’ve got a lesson plan! I will
include my “doll challenges” here in the near future along with links to
those web “doll enthusiasts” who are busy pursuing new challenges of
their own. My “Challenges” are written in a lesson plan format suitable
for adaptations by both middle school and high school art educators,
however, teachers will need to add additional information about State
and National Standards. Doll challenges present a wide variety of
methods and applications that can be included in textile art classes,
sewing classes and/or art clubs.
If you are a doll artist and would like to submit photos of a
completed doll for one or all of these challenges, I will review your
project and post it under the category for others to appreciate and
learn from. Include the information listed at the bottom of each
challenge under the label description along with several nice jpgs. Web
participants should also identify the name of a pattern he or she uses
and where other readers may find it if they should choose not to design
their own patterns for the project. Email your entry to
pickandprintgallery@yahoo.com Remember that students visit this web
journal often and I will not include work that could be considered
“inappropriate” for young children. (I have taught drawing and painting
anatomy courses but do not include ‘nude’ content on my education web
pages because of Missouri state rules and regulations concerning
classroom content.) I can also give your web journal a backlink if you’d like. There are no ‘awards’ or monetary prizes for participation, sorry.
