Art
with
Romero Britto
Do you every wonder why art teachers only teach about dead
artists when there are so many great, living artists to teach
about? Well, I wondered that when I saw the work of Romero
Britto during the pre-game Super Bowl show in 2007. I
designed this lesson with this artist as the inspiration. Here you
will get all of the steps along with the resources I used to teach
this wonderful art lesson. Students love using popular items
such as Starbucks’ cups and iPods to make their art relevant to
the times they are living in.
This lesson also allows for a great extension at the end for the
upper grades to help them reflect on their work and write
about their project. With this lesson you will receive the full
lesson plan with step-by-step instructions, a rubric, all of the
national standards, learning objectives, material list, resources
and a slide show.
I have also included some extra fun holiday themed Pop Art a
la Romero Britto style at the end of this lesson. These are all
from lessons I have for sale individually in my Teachers Pay
Teachers store. I have combined them in with this art lesson to
provide more options around the holiday times. Use them
however you think is best in your personal classrooms.
Thank you!
