What's in the worksheet
6 questions, 3 options each - How does art reflect society? (it shows the beliefs and way of life of its time) - How does contemporary art differ from traditional art? (it reflects the present and uses new methods) - How can art help with social problems? (by raising issues and getting people interested) - Which jobs are in the arts? (designers, artists and musicians)
How to use it in class
Open by projecting one traditional and one contemporary artwork, then play, about 7 minutes, whole class. For the careers question, have children add other art jobs they know. For the social-problems question, show a campaign poster or a community mural. For a question many miss, go back and compare the two opening pictures. Play it linked to the class and the scores go into the gradebook.
Common sticking points
- Contemporary art: the distractor "must be made on a computer" draws children who think contemporary means digital. - Art in ritual: some pick "only for decoration", not thinking of belief. Give examples like a Buddha image or a baisri offering. - Careers: children who think art means only painting may choose "only painters".
