Lesson Plan

Creative Corners Lesson Plan

Given an excerpt of The Dot and art supplies (condition), students will identify and record three illustration details that describe character, setting, or mood, and create an original artwork using at least two observed visual techniques (behavior), with at least 80% accuracy as measured by the response sheet (criterion).

Integrating literacy and art deepens reading comprehension by focusing on visual narratives, while fostering creativity, fine motor development, and confidence in art-making—all key skills for 2nd graders.
