Fourth graders at Ocean Avenue Elementary School recently wrapped up a Side x Side program that integrated a language arts poetry unit with printmaking and film. Led by teaching artists Anne Ackerman and Case Ledoux, students wrote free verse poems using figurative language, and then created prints with a color scheme that matched or personified the mood of their poems to use as a background for their films. Students also created silhouette design elements that tied into their poems. They then filmed each other reciting their poems in front of a green screen, which were then complied into one final film featuring all the students.
