These public art lesson plans are designed to accompany the audio slideshows available on this website. The lessons have been developed as a six-part unit, beginning with an introduction to public art, which can be taught over five one-hour class periods.
The unit is organized so that lessons may be paired together enabling students to visualize historical trends and changes in public art. Lessons can also be used separately. They are aligned with the Pennsylvania standards for 4th and 5th grade students.
