Record all students’ names said by the student and then print out the audio wave was so that each student has a visual of their name wave. Then students will create an audio wave model of their names using proper pen and ink technique and “wet on wet” watercolor.

For this lesson, students will work together to make a large scale pendulum to create works of art as a group. This project is done on a large scale and so it is best to do it outside or in a gymnasium. Students will build the pendulum, using the traffic cones to hold the long board. Students then will attach the string to the center of the board and attach the condiment bottle to the string with the paper clip. The nut or washer will be attached to the string to add weight. (Pieces are large 7-8 feet tall, each class will make 6-7 pieces of art.)

To familiarize students with Prehistoric art, the reasons for it, the subject matter depicted, style and colors used. This project is integrated with a 4th grade study of Native people.

Utah is an amazing place, rich in resources, in geographic wonders, in inspiring history, and in the diversity of its people. The study of Utah permits students to understand more deeply the place they call home, while developing essential skills unique to the social studies disciplines. Within these standards, Utah Studies offers an opportunity for students to learn about their own families and cultures as well as those of others.
