Lesson Plan

Sound-to-Shape Outline

Students will create visual art that reflects different musical genres by painting shapes, colors, and patterns to the rhythm and mood of each style, fostering sensory connections between sound and visuals.

Linking music and art enhances listening skills, creativity, and cross-disciplinary thinking, allowing students to express emotions and patterns they hear through visual media.
