The students in their math classes were learning how to simplify fractions. The students were prompted to break up a 10x10 grid into their own varieties of geometric shapes. This grid is reminiscent of Piet Mondrian's minimalist and grid-like paintings. The students had to put a fraction inside each shape to represent what fraction of the whole grid that shape takes up. The students were then prompted to simplify each shape. The students then colored their shapes with primary colors the way Piet Mondrian colored his images.

The students were given the template of a skeleton. They were able to pose (or create a gesture) for what action their skeleton is doing. Various bones were to be labeled as well as putting the posed skeleton in a background. The finished works were of skeletons doing various things. The students worked on their illustration skills as well as practicing their knowledge of the skeletal system.

The students in science class were given a template outline of a person. They were tasked to research and illustrate the components and organs of that body system. With a finished work, the students were able to demonstrate their knowledge of body systems through art.

The science teachers tasked the students to illustrate different types of energy. The students used a variety of media to demonstrate how certain types of energy worked. Students worked in groups researching and designing. The end result is a piece of artwork that represents how basic physics work.

The students learned how animals micro evolve over time in certain types of environments. They were tasked to apply their knowledge of how an animal can change over generations to survive. The students had fun illustrating their own versions of this. Through researching and design, the students were able to fully demonstrate their knowledge of micro evolution with very interesting presentations.

The students were prompted to write a poem with visual language as well as represent that poem with an illustration. Visual arts meets language arts!
