Arts/Math Integration Project

LEGACY PROJECT

Overview | Objectives | Math Standards | Resources

OVERVIEW
Lessons will focus on the development of a school-based art piece or project. This activity can be used as a class or school project. Using math and art, Legacy Project students will work in small teams to identify ways of enhancing their school environment for learners, families, staff and visitors and to develop, design, and implement realistic and artistic solutions. Projects will be aligned with the Math College Readiness Math Standards and Washington state Arts Essential Academic Learning Requirements.

The Legacy Project is a challenge for the senior class to work as a cohort to identify and solve campus problem to enhance the school environment. Students identify a need of the school campus to enhance the school environment for learners, families, staff and visitors and develop, design, and implement a solution to that need. The Legacy Project contains components of the TALONS (senior portfolio). Credit can be earned or retrieved in math, art, science, social issues, CWP, or as an elective based on student credit evaluation in consultation with advisory teachers.
