All About Me
In art class, our middle school students created “All About Me Collages” to show who they are through words, colours, and patterns.
During the first session, students brainstormed words and sentences that describe themselves—things they like, their hobbies, and their personalities. They also thought about their favourite colours, symbols, and designs. Using markers, oil pastels, and paints, they filled their papers with bold and colourful backgrounds that reflect their unique moods.
In the second session, students added black-and-white photos of themselves and decorated them with the words they had written. They arranged the words around their portraits in creative ways, turning their artwork into a visual self-introduction.
The final collages are full of colour, energy, and personality. Each one tells a story about what makes that student special.
