Concept Comparison: The Zodiac Constellations of the Ecliptic
The twelve constellations of the zodiac are important! Not because they predict our luck, love, health, and wealth, but because they are a great teaching tool to understand the motions of the Earth around the Sun. This Concept Comparison helps contrast the zodiac signs, derived from the constellations along the sun’s path in the sky. The star patterns along the ecliptic help Ss track the orbit and wobble of Earth. And they remind us of astronomy’s humble roots, from ancient cultures that have dr

Handouts for Pointillism Landscape Watercolor Unit - Fully Editable Word Doc
This resource is a 16 page fully editable word document of the handouts I use for a 7-day Pointillism Landscape Painting (Watercolor) unit in my Intro to Visual Arts class at a high school in the Bronx, New York City. For this unit my students painted on a half sheet of watercolor paper (6inches by 9inches) so this unit could definitely be extended for a longer amount of time if you use a full sheet of 9x12 paper (which I have done in the past but requires students with more patience).
