4th and 5th Grade Assignment #3

X-Ray Art

Objective: Students will trace a silhouette of their friends for their x-ray/ technology portraits.

Materials: overhead projector, paper, pencils

Procedure: The overhead projector is for projecting their shadows on the paper.

Students will be called in pairs to trace each others profiles. These profiles will then be used in the coming weeks for their x-ray/technology portraits. The next thing students will draw is technology in the parts of their head where organs used to be. They are replacing body parts will technology that they are familiar with, and is analogous to that part of their head (i.e. some kind of camera for the eye, some kind of processor for the brain, etc.)
