Welcome to Mrs. Blake's classroom Arts Integration Project - September 2010

Mrs. Blake's class worked on a project for Gorham History and Colonial Times. The students started with historical Gorham images altering them to reflect some of the changes to their town today. This project allows the students to make connections from the past to the present and to think about how these changes impact their lives today. They will reflect on these changes and what it means to them and their community and they will use these thoughts and understandings to create a "Found Poem".

The artwork is displayed with the original image first and the altered image second. The artist's poem, typed exactly as written by the artist, follows the two images.

Enjoy!!
