Teaching Tip

Compare and contrast art pictures and photographs of the past and present, such as portraits of children and our school photos.

Notice details, clothing, background, props and discuss.

Then have students paint a self portrait modeled after an older portrait. Include present day props (ie: video game instead of doll...) and background.
