hey @cutblog @ArtIsEd @NAEA chk it: BWMS Medieval Fashion Show- students make newspaper/duct tape costumes #k12 #artsed #lessonplan a performance #myr #horry

My students worked together to design costumes based off of Medieval fashions while maintaining  a balance team work and problem solving.

The film shows the BWMS Medieval Fashion Show at Black Water Middle School as a showcase of work from my seventh grade art students.There are also photomontages of the groups workng together to form their costumes.

This video is a master collection from all of the footage of IPad, Flips and the digital cameras to help give some insight of all the work involved in this project. This is the best of the best.

 

I have been documentating my students' progress for several weeks, so I have a FEW of those pics arranged into a Picasa slideshow below:

 

I also have a combined these pics into a Picasa movie

 

 

 

 

• I also have created an embeddable lesson plan that you can use with your students. It basically utilizes teamwork and problem solving to create wearable works of art.

Since 7th grade BWMS art students are preparing their costumes for our Medieval themed newspaper fashion show, they should know a little something about Medieval artwork.

 To help bridge the connection between art history, social studies and costume design, students got to huge one of the various photo editing tools at Big Huge labs: Movie Poster maker

The site has great resources for teachers, such as creating accounts for your students so they don't need an email.

If students have access to Facebook, they can also import their pictures from there and create more works of art with the other Big Huge Lab sites.

Check out some of the other works of art that my students made below as they had to imagine themselves as a Medieval movie producer and incorporate a piece of art to attract people to see it.
