- Foundational Activity: Change a specific object within the work of art and get the children to describe how the meaning of the art has changed with the different object. ie Switch a cigarette to a pen within a painting, how does the meaning of the painting change?
5. Concept (Judgment)
- Aesthetic Development: Keeping with the theme, have the children choose a work of art they did like and one they did not hand explain why for both.
