This lesson remixes an original lesson plan from Govind Lingam entitled "Teach Design: Mood Board." In this active-learning lesson, students will be introduced to the process of close-reading by exploring two paintings that have contrasting depictions of a similar subject matter. They will circulate around the room to evaluate a set of paired artwork, exploring each one first for mood and then determining what specific details from each painting helped develop the mood of the piece. They will complete the activity with an exit reflection that asks them to consider how they can transfer this close-reading skill to an exploration and analysis of written texts.
