Since I have 3 art rooms and 1 library to maintain I am the first to admit
that my bulletin boards get abit ragged by the end of the school year. In my
middle/high school room I have done one with various op art posters &
reproductions and posted the saying "What do you see". The kids love it!
Another one I have done is to put up 3-4 reproductions and have students try
to find out the similarity. Sometimes the similarity is the exaggerated use
of complementary colors, sometimes it's that all artists are American or
female. I offer a candy bar to the first one to get the right answer. I have
also put up as many reproductions of portraits that I can find. I have
students describe in great detail the portrait they are looking at. Then
they swap their descriptions and try to identify the correct one.
Good idea about posting pictures of bulletin boards. I'll put them on my
site if no one else wants to volunteer. :-)
