The participants will experience a diverse watercolor unit from the perspective of a student as they explore brush and watercolor techniques (wet & dry) individually and in small groups before listening, discussing, and visually expressing the effects that pre-selected music has on the five senses and on one's memory. Additionally, the participants will experience the effect that intra- and inter-departmental collaborations can have on the students and improve overall engagement. Objectives: After completing this course, the participants will be able to: 1) demonstrate wet and dry watercolor techniques; 2) create watercolor activities for individuals and groups; 3) integrate literature and music into watercolor lesson plans; 4) improve student engagement; and 6) create impactful intra- and inter-departmental collaborations.
