Students can create their structure using the bottle caps, dip them in paint to make their design, or add additional materials onto their structure. The lesson plan includes the learning objectives, supplies, videos, procedure, guiding questions, and culminating activity. Everything in the collection can be shared via Google Classroom, a link to students, and social sharing. Lessons can also be built upon once you log into the site. This lesson addresses the National Art Core Standards.
