Description

I Wonder… Creative Art Prompts for Imaginative Writing

They say a picture speaks a thousand words, and this etching certainly does. Narrative war art at its best, Death Forbids by Percy Delf Smith reveals a complete story.

Rather than formally analysing ‘Death Forbids’, this handout asks for a creative response. Each prompt starts ‘I wonder…’ which reinforces the idea that there is no one correct answer. Example statements would be ‘I wonder… why the artist included barbed wire in the artwork.’ and ‘I wonder… what sounds I would hear if I stepped into this artwork and what I would smell.’

This download includes:

  • A one-page handout with the artwork and writing prompts. Students work on paper or in a sketchbook so these handouts can be used again and again.
  • A one-page ‘teacher notes’ includes a short paragraph giving one interpretation of the artwork.

Combine The Arty Teacher’s creative ‘I Wonder…’ tasks with structured Elements & Principles formal analysis resources for a complete, balanced approach to teaching art analysis.

Sarah Crowther – The Arty Teacher

I set up The Arty Teacher because I have a passion for my subject that I want to share with other art teachers around the world.

I have been a high school art teacher for over 20 years, so I understand what it’s like to be in front of a class of students, often with very different abilities and attitudes.

I wanted to develop resources that would help teachers to bring out the best in every student in every class. I also wanted to free-up staff from time-consuming lesson preparation to let them focus instead on delivering exciting, motivating, dynamic lessons, supported by excellent resources.
