In the Classroom

Students can complete the lessons as presented on the site. Students can analyze, compare, and contrast other pieces of art that depict architecture. These comparisons can be shown on a Venn diagram. Students can make the diagram on paper or digitally using Venn Diagram Creator reviewed here. Finally, students can recreate the art that is shown in the lessons themselves using a different medium.
