GAEA Conference Fall 2024

We will start by sharing how altered books can be used in a beginning art classroom in order to introduce (or enhance) students’ knowledge of the elements and principles of design. I will share how I utilize altered book lessons to introduce a larger unit focusing on an element or principle of design and share examples. Then, we will create a 2-page “altered book” spread with a sample element of design so teachers can take a finished page home to use as an example in their own classroom.
