The decisions made by politicians affect our lives and the lives of others, and students should be politically aware and have a secure understanding of how to use art to support or protest a political action or ideology, and how it has been used in the past. Some of the units have overlapping qualities, this is intentional and each unit is designed to build off of one another. This unit is intended for 8th grade and up, and would be most successful in a 10-12th grade classroom.
