My image based lesson shows a little boy (who happens to be my brother, bobby) holding a stuffed animal. He’s holding it close and cherishing it, because he loves the teddy bear. Most children have something they are fond of and truly enjoy, that is a toy or animal or something of the sort. So the idea of this lesson is to have the children bring in/take a picture/describe some sort of cherished item they have at home. They can then bring it in or describe it in an activity in class. They will have their picture with the item in class, or the can simply bring in a picture in. Then, they will be instructed to write a little paragraph or blurb about their favorite item. They can decorate the picture with crayons, colored pencils, markers, etc. and we can hang them up in the classroom.

First of all your brother is adorable! But I really like your lesson. I think it's great that the kids will be able to bring in a picture of them with something that they truely love and enjoy and are able to share that with their peers. Also I like how you incorporated a writing activity in with the decorating and sharing of the picture. Great job!
That is a really cute idea! I know kids really love showing off things that really mean a lot to them and that is a great way to incorporate an art lesson into it to by allowing them to decorate them and then show them off by hanging them up. I don't know any kid who wouldn't love to do this! Good Idea!
Ps. Your little brother is adorable! :o)
What I really like about your lesson other than the picture of your little brother with teddy bear is that you would get to know the children on a more personal level which would help understand them better as students. Also, I like that it gives them an opportunity to be creative and artistic and decorate their work. Great idea!
