Unlikely Pairs by Bob Raczka is one of my students' favorite books. Whenever we have a few moments at the end of class, this is a "go to" activity -- analyzing the pairs of artworks and offering ideas why they might be paired.
This is one of the first pairings in the book:
After viewing this video and examining a few bubble images from Google on the Smartboard, students will be creating their own bubble art ( maybe soap bubbles, maybe carbonation bubbles from a drink, maybe bubbles that they are blowing themselves). I plan on having kids use construction paper crayons and maybe some oil pastels on black paper. We will have to wait to see what they come up with but I will share student work in the future.
This looks like a really interesting book - thanks for the tip!
ReplyDeleteThis book found its way into my library as well. I love taking it out when we have down time and using it to promote discussion.
ReplyDeleteLove this book too! We need a second edition!!!
ReplyDeleteIt would be fun to have students write their own sequel, wouldn't it??
