El proyecto: En mi familia

Buenas tardes a todos,

Here are the instructions for our first project of the new semester!  It will be based on Carmen Lomas Garza's art from En mi familia / In my family, from which we read in class.

Visual Project:  Create a piece of art that expresses your family or cultureDraw, color, or make a collage that represents a family tradition! (Note: project can be on a blank sheet of paper - but please do not use lined paper!!)
Written Project: In 1-2 English sentences, explain how a artist expresses their culture or heritage through art.  Then, in 2-3 sentences, describe the picture you drewTell about your family tradition; describe who participates and how they are related to youWrite our vocabulary words for family members in Spanish!
Please keep in mind that we will be working on this tomorrow in class.  This project will be due at the end of class tomorrow.  If you would like to get a head start, feel free to start your written project.  
Here are some examples of Lomas Garza's work that we saw in class today.
