Taba Making Generalizations Now group your post it notes into categories on the board. What themes did you come up with? What could the problem be?

Parnes I: Mess What is the problem? Hunger How can artistically gifted students impact global hunger? Indiana State Standard: [] Standard 12 - Students understand how art experiences affect daily life and identify opportunities for involvement in the arts. [ART.7.12.3 & 8.12.3] Identify ways one can become actively involved in supporting the arts in the community. [1-7] The arts are connected to other areas of life.

Parnes II: Fact Finding: Knowledge: List what you know about hunger. Recall facts about food costs and / or Food Pantry Statistics Name organizations you know of that help fight hunger and / or poverty

Questioning: Comprehension: Describe the living conditions and surroundings of the families in the pictures Discuss the quality, quantity and assortment of foods

Parnes III: Problem Finding Hunger No resources No Jobs Poverty inequality No help from government economy Lack of education Lack of Sharing resources Some countries rich, some poor People within countries can be rich or poor Between people Between countries

Questioning: Application: Make a graphic organizer or chart to brainstorm possible ways to help solve or alleviate the global hunger problem.

IV: Idea Finding Brainstorming application: Education Political change Art Fair / Festival Send food Habitat For Humanity Fundraiser Jobs Hunger

Questioning: Analysis: Sort brainstorming categories into chart for solution finding Assign each idea points based on questions Tally the points for each idea to see which idea is the best to pursue

Parnes V: Solution Finding Directions: Rate each solution according to a 1-5 point criteria 1 = least likely or most difficult; 5 = best option / most doable TALLY Can the event be repeated in the future? Will it have a lasting impact? Will it involve many people? Will it take a long time to complete? 12 1 5 5 1 4. Jobs 19 5 4 5 5 3. Fundraising 15 5 3 4 3 2. Education 12 1 5 5 1 1. Political Change

Questioning: Evaluation of : Assess the options (on your graphic organizer) Which option had the most points? Why? Defend your opinion (To your group) Why do you feel this is the best option? Focus for Acceptance Finding (as a class) What type of fundraising can integrate art?

A Brief History of the Empty Bowls Banquet In 1990 a high school art teacher in Michigan helped his students solve a problem.�� They were searching for a way to raise funds to support a food drive.�� What evolved was a class project to make ceramic bowls for a fund raising meal.�� Guests were served a simple meal of soup and bread, and were invited to keep the bowl as a reminder of hunger in the world. For more program history go to: www.emptybowls.net

Our purpose: Today at Corydon Central Junior High School our purpose is the same as the program’s original intent. We hope to raise awareness about hunger issues and are donating all of our proceeds to fight hunger here in our own community. 80% of the proceeds will go to the Corydon Food Pantry (Harrison County Community Services) and 20% to an animal rescue shelter. Simply put, when people go hungry, so do their pets.

In addition to making nearly 300 bowls for this event, many visual arts students dedicated more time, effort and energy into 1 or more of the 15 different committees necessary make this program a success. You can see examples of their work throughout this paper and in action around the banquet.
