Appendix on Implementing District Standards

This visual art unit meaningfully implements the school district’s academic standards because students will learn to think critically about their observation. Students will implement their understanding of the topic of “Art of the Mushroom,” within this unit through demonstrating creative expression with artwork made from a wide range of materials. This interdisciplinary study of mushrooms bridges art, science and history and promotes visual literacy. Using learning progressions students will acquire a conceptual framework for thinking about their relationship to the environment around them.
