This 3rd grade art lesson focuses on teaching students about respect through reading The Ugly Duckling and creating paper ducklings. Students will learn about feelings associated with respect and disrespect, and demonstrate respect by placing their ducklings in a "Respect Pond" display. The lesson addresses state standards for art and incorporates discussion of the elements of art, vocabulary, and the pop artist Jim Dine. Student understanding will be evaluated through discussion questions and a rubric.
