Description: This project works really great to get the students to introduce themselves at the start of year. Lay out some expectations with this project, such as using three or more different mediums, having your name clearly written, and being neat. This allows for students to show their own interests and personalities, while also engaging in art! Some examples of mediums and things I used were a Diet Coke box, a Polaroid, and a concert ticket. After students make their footprint you can have them each present! Extension Activity: A good extension activity for this could be the class taping their footprints to the wall in your classroom to make it look like they are all walking and moving forward together. This also could serve as some classroom decor that ties in your students and makes them feel welcome and included.
