For this lesson, we discussed how colors can represent feelings. We identified colors we commonly think of that relate to certain emotions, and the students discovered that different colors can mean different things depending on the person. We referenced the movie Inside Out as an example of how colors can be used to represent emotions. We read the The Way I Feel, which is a great book that uses color to represent various feelings. I demonstrated how to use color in your artwork to represent emotion by using different colors of oil pastel and paint to create an abstract work of art. The students were then told to create a work of art that represents various emotions using color. As they worked, I asked them to identify what each color represents for them. The following class, we turned these works of art into windsocks.
