• Suggested Lesson Sequence
• Discuss how the word art is the center of the
  word earth. Ask your students what
  metaphorical implications this might have. Have
  them to find other word-within-words for a
  journal entry. For example Theres a little
  love in every four-leaf clover.
• Next, view the slides of Andy Goldsworthys work.
  Inform them that Goldsworthy always worked with
  the materials on hand and primarily used his
  hands as his tools. He was noninvasive to nature
  and his works were impermanent. All that lasts
  of most of them is a photo.
• Explain art happenings to your students. Use the
  definition provided or search out your own.
• Have students answer the questions at the end of
  this presentation and then, commence to
  orchestrate their own environmental happening.
  You may choose to have them gather small bags of
  natural materials and work in the studio or work
  outside on location.
• Record student happenings with digital camera.
  Post and share.

elements present and what happens, happens. Is it
art?

elements would you like to work with? 2) Where
would you like to work? 3) Would you like to
perform alone or interact with others?
