About This Lesson
Students create an "illustrated dictionary" of the visual arts. They use Google Search and Images to find pictures and images of different branches (e.g. sculpture, painting, textiles) and use these to create a dictionary that explains each type of art and gives images of examples.
They then research famous artists to find out which countries they came from and add them to a Google Map with information and pictures of their work to build up a visual representation of artists across the world.
Brilliant overview of visual arts and great ideas for incorporating ICT
