Original Prompt

I need a SEL worksheet that is based on a art project. The art project requires students to draw a picture and write the word of the image on the inside. This is for middle grade students. I need a worksheet that will require them to reflect on their image and include SEL components.

This Word Art project encourages students to express their emotions visually by creating a meaningful representation of a chosen word. It helps enhance self-awareness and emotional literacy by guiding students through selecting a word, planning an image, sketching, and filling it with color and text. The process includes reflecting on the emotional connection to the word, exploring how it relates to their identity and experiences, and engaging with peers through thoughtful feedback during a gallery walk. Additionally, students will consider how their art can be interpreted differently by others, fostering social awareness and relationship-building skills.
