There are two types of elephants, African and Indian. African elephants are the largest land animal. Elephants live in herds and calves are called baby elephants. An elephant's trunk is actually an extended nose that they use to drink, breathe, pick up food and break branches. Elephants eat grass and leaves in the morning and evening and use their trunks to suck up water. Their habitats in forests and grasslands are being destroyed so protection efforts are needed to save elephants.

The African elephant is an endangered species facing extinction due to hunting and poaching for ivory, habitat loss, and decreasing populations. Poaching for ivory and trophy hunting is the main driver of their decline, reducing elephant numbers from millions to only thousands. As human settlements expanded, they claimed elephant habitats. Remaining elephants are further threatened as poachers still kill them for their rare and expensive ivory. Their numbers decreased by over 600,000 in just 20 years. Conservation efforts aim to protect these threatened giants.

Grandma Moses was born Anna Mary Robertson in 1860 and worked as a hired hand on farms from a young age due to her family's poverty. She married and had 10 children of her own while continuing to work farms. At age 78, her arthritis made needlework painful, so she took up painting scenes from her rural life using house paint. Her folk art style paintings of farmscapes and community scenes became wildly popular, selling for thousands despite her initial modest prices. Grandma Moses achieved great success late in life, appearing on television and being honored by presidents, before continuing to paint into her 100s and becoming a celebrated example of perseverance.

Native American Indians readily accepted glass trade beads from European explorers like Christopher Columbus in exchange for goods. They used the beads to decorate their clothes and baskets as well as for trading and personal adornment. Traditionally, beads were made from materials found in nature and served purposes of protection, beauty, and status. Glass trade beads later became widely used in exchanges between Native Americans and settlers.

Franz Marc was born in 1880 in Munich, Germany to a landscape painter father. He originally studied theology but later switched to art, being influenced by Impressionism after trips to Paris. Marc was inspired by nature and animals, seeing them as spiritual. His most famous work was Large Lenggries Horse Painting 1 from 1908. During World War 1, Marc volunteered for the German military and was killed in France in 1916. A museum dedicated to Marc's work now stands in the house he once lived in.

The original painting by Franz Marc, titled "The Yellow Cow", depicts a smiling yellow cow against a backdrop of triangular blue mountains. Marc's wife Maria had a happy personality, so the cow may symbolize her. The diagonal lines behind the cow convey a sense of energy. Students are tasked with copying the outline of the painting but changing the lines, shapes, and colors to convey a different emotion. They will be graded based on how well they use visual elements to symbolize the new emotion and the technical skills in their rendition.

MandalasKaren Weinstein

Mandalas are circular artistic representations that symbolize wholeness and the cosmic order of the universe. They appear throughout nature and in many world religions and cultures. To create a mandala, one begins with a circle and divides it into sections using radial lines, then fills the sections with balanced patterns and designs. Mandalas can be created using various media like paint, pencil, or mixed materials. They must be neatly made, show radial balance, use color schemes to convey a mood, and demonstrate control of the chosen art medium.
