Forged in the fires of Mount Doom, Lord Sauron cre

Forged in the fires of Mount Doom, Lord Sauron created a ring that renders the wearer invisible and gives them enormous power. On the ring is inscribed a verse in old elven text that can only be revealed with fire:

One Ring to rule them all
One Ring to find them
One Ring to bring them all
And in the darkness bind them.

In this LiterARTure lesson, we paint the One Ring with Sauron's tower.

Talk Like a Pirate Day is coming up soon... how do you like to celebrate? Why not kick it off with an art project inspired by one of the most famous pirates of them all?

When young Jim Hawkins comes into the possession of a treasure map, he finds himself swept away on a swashbuckling adventure among pirates, led by the infamous Long John Silver. And once they reach the secret island, it’s a race against the clock to find the treasure buried there.

In this LiterARTure lesson, we create an artwork of Long John Silver from Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island!

Almanzo Wilder lived on a big farm with his family

Almanzo Wilder lived on a big farm with his family, where he learned how to gather in the harvest, break in his own cows, cut and store ice through the summer, care for horses, and many other chores that were important on the farm.

In this LiterARTure lesson, we create an art piece inspired by Farmer Boy, and the farm on which Almanzo lived.
