Self Portrait

I created my self portrait at Picassohead.com. This was a fun activity and it was interesting to create my own "masterpiece." This activity could be useful in the classroom with all age groups and skill levels. It could also be useful when studying a lesson on Pablo Picasso. I experienced difficulty while attempting to place my art on this blog. After saving my image on the website, I tried to send the picture directly from the website to my blog using the "share" button, but only the link would show up on my blog. Instead, I utilized my newly learned skills with the Snipping tool and was able to "snip" and then insert the snipped image on my blog. The ISTE NETS T standards that relate to this activity are standards 1A and 2A. With this activity, teachers can promote creative thinking and inventiveness, and teachers can design relative learning experiences that use digital tools to promote student learning and creativity(such as a lesson about Picasso). Students will be able to use their creativity in creating their own personal "Picasso."
