| 5 | Cleanup and Homework | 5 min | Clean up the workspace. Assign homework: students will research one interesting fact about Matisse and write it down to submit for assessment. |
Students are to research one interesting fact about Henri Matisse and write a short paragraph describing it. Students will submit their homework at the next class without any presentations in front of the class.
Homework will be collected and reviewed based on completion and understanding of Matisse's contributions to art. Art created in class will be displayed in the classroom for appreciation, but there will be no formal assessment of the artworks.
