A Colorful Battle of High-Stakes Lesson Planning with Unusual Art Supplies

Three mystery box rounds.

Two art teachers.

One chance to create frame-worthy artwork—Who will make their mark?

The challenge? Art teachers just like you tackle lesson planning with a mystery box filled with unexpected surprises. They must frame a plan, think outside the frame, and elevate the materials into frame-worthy artwork! Who will stand out?!

There are three rounds: 

1. Bellringer
2. Art Project
3. Closure 

Each lesson round comes with its own box of mystery art supplies. Art teachers must use all of the supplies in some way and transform the item. At the end, they’ll reflect and evaluate themselves based on their successes, challenges, and creativity.

Will their students create frame-worthy artworks… or will they need to reframe for next time?

Join Joe Boatfield and Casey Grant-Miller as they explore the Element of COLOR with a wild mystery box of art supplies!
