Students chose an initial of either their first, last or middle name. First the students made different sketch designs for the letter that represented something about themselves. Then, they had to construct the letter using small dixie cups, paper tape and chip board. After adding gesso to the letter, the students transferred their sketch onto the letter and painted it.
The students were proud of this project. They took ownership because it relates directly to who they are. Many of them told me they were going to take it home and put it in their room. The seniors plan to display their initial in their dorm rooms.
