Lesson Plan on Pablo Picasso

Lesson Plan on Pablo Picasso
Art, Creative Arts, Art History, Fine Arts, Biographies, Social Studies, Not Grade Specific, Activities, Lesson Plans, Teacher Tools, Worksheets, Worksheets & Printables

Pablo Picasso was among the most impactful artists of the 20th century. He is recognized for co-founding the Cubist movement, creating constructed sculpture, co-inventing collage, and for the diverse range of styles that he contributed to and examined. For approximately 80 of his 91 years, Picasso dedicated himself to creating art that played a crucial role in the overall progress of modern art during the 20th century, especially through the creation of Cubism (alongside artist Georges Braque) around 1907. Picasso is often regarded as THE genius of the twentieth century. Possibly more than any other artist, he transformed the course of art, initiating the modernist movement. He was an innovator of Cubism, subsequently of collage art, and eventually neo-classicism. This lesson plan centers around the artwork of Pablo Picasso. Numerous activities are provided, arranged in two worksheets. Their answers are provided in the end. Six of his most famous works are also included.

High School Famous People in History Reading Passage and Q & A
ELA, Reading, Writing, Science, Social Studies, High School, Homeschool Resources, Teacher Tools, Assessments, Quizzes and Tests, Lesson Plans, Worksheets & Printables, Writing Prompts

You know that moment when your teenager gives you that look after you hand them another boring history book? My 9th grader practically perfected the eye-roll when it came to learning about "dead people from way back when" (her words, not mine!). I finally got fed up with watching her zone out during history time—these are not just random names and dates, these are the people who literally changed everything! After way too many late nights researching and writing (and lots of coffee), I put together these High School Famous People in History Reading Passage, Q & A, and Note-Taking Sheets that actually tell their stories in a way that makes sense to teenagers. The best part? My daughter actually started asking questions and voluntarily bringing up history during dinner conversation—when that happens, you know you've found something that works, and I'm hoping it'll do the same thing for your family's history studies. INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE: In-depth exploration of historical figures in history 20 thought-provoking questions about historical impact Detailed guided responses to help parents facilitate meaningful discussions 5 Note-Taking Sheets to help students organize information and develop analytical thinking skills TOPICS COVERED: Scientific and Mathematical Pioneers Literary and Artistic Luminaries Political Visionaries and Social Reformers Technological and Medical Breakthroughs Okay, so here's the deal—I spent forever putting together this High School Famous People in History Reading Passage, Q & A, and Note-Taking Sheets because I was tired of my kid thinking history was just a bunch of boring old stuff. These readings aren't fluff—they really dive into what made these people tick and how they managed to shake up the entire world. What I love is that the questions actually make kids think instead of just spitting back whatever they memorized five minutes ago, and the note-taking part keeps everything organized without making their brain hurt. My daughter went from literally groaning every time I mentioned history to actually telling her friends about some of the crazy things these historical figures did. Trust me, you are going to find yourself pulling this out over and over because there's always something new your kid will pick up on that they totally missed before. If you and your students/homeschoolers enjoyed this resource, please leave a review. Thank you for your support! Tina - Big Easy Homeschooling Mom
