Tattoo Design Project—

| 10th-12th Grade |

Project Scope— Advanced I & II

Students at this level have been struggling the most during this pandemic. I knew I needed to come up with a project that would heavily pique interest. Understanding that teenagers love the rebellious, taboo, and ‘grown-up’ nature of topics perceived as ‘cool,' I leveraged a concept that I knew would have a high probability of sparking some interest, motivation, and engagement. It worked!
