This resource contains 3 cross-curricular art projects inspired by the artwork of Judith Scott, an amazing artist with Down’s Syndrome.  Ideal for Women’s History Month (March) or International Day of Persons with Disabilities (December 3), this highly engaging lesson is a perfect way to teach students about the value of all people, even those who are different.

This lesson is designed for special needs students to succeed in the art room but can be used with all Kindergarten - 5th grade students. 

This resource is in a PDF file and contains 21 pages. It includes:

• Cross-curricular lesson with detailed instructions and photos for 3 projects
• Suggestions for project & material variations
• Judith Scott artist facts
• Women’s History Month facts
• Tips for project success & working with students with special needs
• Cross-curricular & literacy connections
• National Arts Standards & TEKS (Texas) for Kindergarten - 5th grade

The artwork produced by these projects is as amazing & diverse as the students themselves.  This lesson has been used with special needs students with fantastic results for student engagement and project creation.    

The 3 included projects with different levels of complexity include many variations that can be used to differentiate for your classes and students. Simple, basic materials are all that is required for these sculpture projects.  This is a project where every student can be successful in your classroom!
