This art activity can be adapted and used for all grade levels. In this activity we listened to music while drawing out how we felt about the music sounds, tones, instruments etc. Each individual used paper and felt pens and drew lines and objects using colours based on their mood while listen to the instrumental music. Each person’s finished art piece was very different from one another and that shows that everyone is different and feels different emotions even when you listen to the same exact music. In the end each group (team colours) created one mobile using each persons art. After creating the mobile art piece, it was hung in the classroom. This art activity is great for students to collaborate and create art together. Since everyone’s art is used to create the mobile, no one feels excluded and can feel proud of their work as it is displayed in the class. There is also no ownership or competition and everyone has the opportunity to feel included and happy about their art.
