GAEA Conference Fall 2024

This elementary-based hands-on work session will allow you to create a personalized pixelated self-portrait on paper and then bring it to life with beads. This project will allow creative expression in choosing colors and patterns to create a pixelated character to look like you! There is also a technology-driven option. We will also be exploring artists who create pixelated murals throughout the country and see how to take street art into the classroom. Whether it is a school tagline or mascot, this fun collaborative project can be a great way to start or end the school year! Leave this session with everything you need to implement these lessons in your classroom including PowerPoints of artists, step-by-step guides, and the templates needed for success..
