Step into the stories behind powerful works of art and discover how pictures can convey just as much meaning as words. The Historical Witness, Social Messaging curriculum from the J. Paul Getty Museum enables students to investigate how artists respond to real historical events, from struggles for human rights to changes in communities and cultures. With lessons organized into beginning, intermediate, and advanced levels, teachers can easily adapt the content for use in upper elementary through high school. This resource encourages critical thinking, discussion, and meaningful connections between the past and issues students see in the world today.

tag(s): 1900s (84), civil rights (219), communities (40), critical thinking (179), cultures (290), women (189)

In the Classroom

Present a powerful artwork from the resource and have students silently observe before sharing what they see, what they think is happening, and what they wonder. Students infer the person represented in the artwork and what message the artist wants viewers to understand. Have them write a short "artist statement" or a mini-narrative from the perspective of someone in the image. After discussing how art can influence social change, students can create posters with positive messages that support fairness, kindness, or community issues. They should explain their design choices and connect their posters to themes found in the original artwork. Make posters digitally using DesignCap Poster Creator, reviewed here.
 This resource requires PDF reader software like Adobe Acrobat.

This website features the annual Color Our Collections initiative organized by the New York Academy of Medicine Library. During the event, libraries, museums, and archives around the world share free downloadable coloring sheets and coloring books derived from rare-book illustrations, historical engravings, maps, anatomical drawings, botanical art, and other archival visuals. The purpose is to engage learners of all ages with primary-source materials in a creative and low-stakes way, encouraging exploration of historical collections while coloring. Teachers can use the materials as cross-curricular resources for social studies, science, visual arts, or literacy by having students observe details in the images, research their contexts, and then color and annotate them to deepen their understanding of the historical artifacts.

tag(s): artists (99), museums (52), OER (50)

In the Classroom

After coloring, have students research the object, organism, or artifact featured on their page. They then write a short informational paragraph that explains its origin, use, and historical significance. Invite students to curate a classroom Pop-Up Museum. Students display their colored pages with captions, research notes, and fun facts. Have students choose a coloring page and complete a See, Think, Wonder observation prompt before coloring. They record details they notice, what they think the image represents, and questions they have about its time period or purpose.

The MackinMaker Free Maker Resources page provides a rich collection of no-cost STEAM/STEM supports and printable tools for K-12 classrooms. Teachers will find Maker Journals to guide students through ideation, creation, iteration, and sharing; challenge cards tailored for different grade bands; fun downloadable coloring and maze sheets tied to maker themes; and product help guides (videos, tutorials, FAQs) to support implementation of maker tools. Whether you're just getting started or looking to deepen your makerspace, these resources are ready to integrate into lessons and help scaffold student exploration.

tag(s): journals (22), makerspace (39), STEM (371)

In the Classroom

Give each student a blank maker journal (from the MackinMaker download). Start with a "brainstorm" page: students sketch out or list ideas for something they'd like to build, experiment with, or improve. Use one of the challenge cards as a five or ten-minute warm-up. Have students select a challenge card at random and attempt to prototype a solution using simple materials (such as paper, tape, and straws). After students pick a challenge, have them build a first version, then use their maker journal to reflect on what worked, what didn't, and what they'd change. Then have them re-design and rebuild.

Eduprotocols offer structured frameworks to enhance and deepen student thinking and understanding through collaboration and creativity. This site offers several Google Slides templates that you can copy and personalize for classroom use. The templates also include basic instructions for using the protocol in the slide notes. To obtain the slides, select a protocol and copy the slide when prompted. Although these slides are for use in middle- to high-school English classrooms, they are adaptable to any grade and subject area.

In the Classroom

Learn more about eduprotocols by reading the book, EduProtocols by Marlena Hebern and Joe Corippo. Use these templates as part of your classroom routines that promote active learning and higher-order thinking skills. Use the templates as a guide to creating other templates for eduprotocols using Google Slides, reviewed here. Adapt the slides to fit your content and student grade level. For example, use the 8 Parts of Speech Stories by breaking the content into two or three parts, such as nouns and verbs for younger students, or use the Gallery Walk slides in a math class to create a display of different approaches to a math problem.
