The periods range from Ancient to Modern (options are on the next slide). You can select a time period that most interests you. You will be researching this period or movement, the achievements of this time, famous and iconic artists during this time and more. You will then use your notes to create a Slides presentation with all of this information. This project is broken down into 4 phases. Phase 1 – Choose a time period or movement. Ancient World, European Art and Modern Art are the time periods included. Phase 2 – Complete the research for their time period or art movement. Phase 3 – Interpret and analyze at least 3 works from your time period or movement. Phase 4 – Create a Google Slides , Prezi, or any other form of visual to present your information. This Google Slides presentation is fully editable, so it allows the teacher to edit any information they need to, such as due dates. For each phase, the slides have place for students to type in their answers, responses, and research.
