Self Portraits are my chosen project for showing student growth in the art room this year. All grades began the year by drawing a self portrait with instruction the first weeks of school. My intent is to have students draw three portraits this year. Classes are working on the 2nd portrait now. Fourth grade students were given the task of studying a print of the Mona Lisa and recreating it with their own self portrait. Getting them past the intimidation factor was the biggest hurdle achieved by assuring them that I would only be assessing the portrait itself for growth. Here are a few of their interpretations along with the self assessment rubric they were given.
