Poetry Writing
The Eagles’ Challenge was to write an original piece of poetry.
Art Criticism
During this short session, Eagles spent time researching a well-known artist and picking their favorite pieces by that artist, and putting together a short slideshow on their artist. They also learned how to use the Feldman Method to "read" and critique art. At Exhibition they will be sharing their artist presentations and walking Exhibition guests through the Feldman Method so guests may also be able to "read" art.
