This lesson is highly successful in elementary grades. Because Maryland has performance task testing, I like to extend this lesson to include an analysis and writing piece. How I used the skill Where I used the skill. By completing the chart the children have created a prewriting guide to answer the question. Then I have my students write a paragraph or more about how they painted like Van Gogh .
Parents love to see their children's writing displayed in the hallway with the finished painting.
