In this creative thinking/inquiry activity, session attendees will explore units where students work as a team to analyze art in order to further their understanding of literature, history, or social studies units. Each group member is assigned a different task, so students have individual and collaborative assignments. Session attendees will see sample lesson plans in literature, science, and social studies classes as well as a suggested timeline and structure of this active learning activity that promotes analysis, synthesis, and evaluation of class content. Session participants will be grouped according to discipline to create their own assignments. The last part of the session will allow the groups to share their progress on Padlet, an online collaboration platform. Assessment rubrics will be shared by the presenter.
