This lesson is designed to allow advanced students to think about art and then describe it.  Students first look at a work of art, then they think about its characteristics and finally work with classmates to write a description in the form of a "word stack" poem.  (Student descriptions are placed in a stack in the middle of their workspace and then used to write a poem.)  This activity can be used as part of the Beauty and Aesthetics theme in AP Spanish or French. Recommended art for Spanish classes:Goya – GirasolPicasso – Tres MúsicosTamayo – Luna y SolEl Greco - ToledoBotero – FamiliaLomas Garza – La TamaladaSorolla – Varando el BarcoRivera – El Vendedor de Alcatraces

World History teachers face many challenges to incorporating primary sources in their teaching—the pressures of coverage in survey courses, the lack of available materials, and inadequate training in dealing with unfamiliar sources from a range of cultures. World History Sources responds to these challenges (as well as the new opportunities offered by the Internet) by creating a website to help world history teachers and students locate, analyze, and learn from online primary sources and to further their understanding of the complex nature of world history, especially the issues of cultural contact and globalization. This site includes scholarly reviews of online primary source archives, including teaching potential; Eight guides by leading world history scholars to analyzing primary sources: music, images, objects, maps, newspapers, travel narratives, official documents, and personal accounts; Eight multimedia case studies model strategies for interpreting particular types of primary sources (music, images, objects, maps, newspapers, travel narratives, official documents, personal accounts) and placing them in historical context; Sixteen case studies, written by high school and college teachers, discuss the planning and implementation involved in teaching a particular primary source.
