Added Information
I designed this visual arts weekly assignment for a home school setting, but it can easily be tweaked to work in a classroom or art camp setting. Feel free to utilize any or all of my ideas!
This visual arts assignment aligns well with world history when exploring civilizations that created art on cave walls. A trip to a cavern with earth and environmental science assignments also augments this topic quite nicely. The following resources are free; however, Nearpod limits the storage for their free tier.
