Music was the last theme that my high school students worked on before spring break when EVERYTHING changed.
I don't think I know anyone who doesn't like music. Everyone can find a style they like. In addition to March being Youth Art Month, it is Music In Our Schools Month so it seemed like a good time to make connections between the arts.
Here is the slides presentation that I used to go over the big ideas:
The big questions for this unit were:
How can artists visually express music?
and
How can color convey feeling?

Students had choice of media.
Eventually, students came up with a plan for a project inspired by music that they could complete in about 2 weeks.

These two friends made paintings the complement each other.
This drawing was by our Italian exchange student who really loved to draw. I like how you can see where she erased on the left side.
