.	Inquiry: How can visual transformation be used to reveal a process of growth and change? Objective:  Explore TRANSFORMATION as a subject of change, evolution or growth. Using the visual elements of shape, line, volume, color and texture a variety of transformation processes can be explored. Process: Consider TRANSFORMATION as a process of LIFE as seen in nature, stages of life, imagination, science, belief systems… Examples: young to old, chrysalis to butterfly, sunrise to sunset, transformer toys, extreme make-over, Artworks: Marc Chagall, “I and the Village” Henri Matisse, “Backs” Edward Muybridge, “Running Horse” Activity:  In Class: Part 1 Make a simple TRANSFORMATION with at least 4 stages. Your transformation can be a real life transformation or a fantasy transformation. The final step is to take digital photographs of each transformation so we can view them on the video projector. At Home: Part 2 Finish your transformations at home.
	Reflection: How do multiple intelligences relate to the transformations?
