El Muralismo y sus Muralistas

By ARIANA PEREZ

Los estudiantes podrán leer acerca de muralistas famosos como

Angela, Jose Clemente Orozco y Diego Rivera.

In this activity students will collect and object for every activity they complete.

This helps students be accountable and engaged in the Breakout activity. Teachers can opt to cut of the pieces and give to students or to simply check off the activities they have completed. ✅

I consider this to be an inspiring lesson that will make a positive impact in your classroom.

⭐️You can use it at the end of a unit, when teaching art or muralism, for cultural focus in class, to spark creativity in students, to provide ample activities in the classroom and to hook students!

El Breakout comienza con la lectura de que es el muralismo y un poco de su historia. Después preguntas para rellenar. Cada actividad les brinda un objeto a los estudiantes. La maestra puede hacer el Breakout más interactivo dándoles estos objetos, o puede ser simplemente un visual a través del estudio del muralismo.
He incluido una actividad interactiva con un link a mi blog: en este enlace los estudiantes pueden ver las obras de los mencionados anteriormente. Este enlace hace que la lección sea motivadora y visual.

⭐️ Incluí a Angela como una influencia femenina y poco representada.

El paquete también incluye preguntas de comprensión, sopa de letras, marca el texto, ¡reflexiones y más! Es hora de saber de mas mujeres muralistas (aparte de Frida claro).
