Provide a metaview, lifting students into a wider view of the concept. Use another medium (not reading or writing) to connect students' personal knowing to the concept (i.e. visual arts, music, movement, metaphor, etc.) Involve learners in reflective production that blends the emotional and the cognitive.
Students must find or create something that expresses some or all of the ideas that were realized in Step 1
Objective: Students will explore various (non-music) media in order to find something that artistically expresses the way they feel about their birth country.
Activity: Individually, students must find or create something that expresses some or all of the idea that were realized in Step 1. These expressions must not be music related, but can be in the form of pictures, artwork, movies/film, poetry, etc. The students will then share (with the groups that were previously formed) their items.
Assessment:Students will produce/find a variety of objects that reflect feelings of nationalism and either pride or dislike of the country of their birth. Are students able to represent their thoughts by using alternate forms of art?
