students drawing board game

My 6th graders made board games for their project on CHANGE. This particular group went above and beyond with their concept. They made a game about how people’s emotions change and using the game to inform where the player will go, which emotion will change, and having cards with important facts. Something they did which was successful was they appropriated emoji’s to show their emotions as well. Appropriation was a challenge I gave to every group because as artists, we don’t want to copy, we want to make our art our own. Not only did they change the emoji facial expressions but they changed their colors as well which added to their game aesthetics.
