To start the tribute letter project, students must first choose a person to whom they want to dedicate the letter. Once the person and letter/letters are chosen, the student must begin creating at least 4 sketches trying out different fonts and designs that represent the person to whom the letter/s pay tribute. After creating the sketches, the student chooses their favorite sketch to turn into a first draft of what the artwork will look like drawing it on a larger scale and adding color. Here are some sample sketches by a particularly talented 9th grader named Ivory. I love that she did 8 sketches instead of the required 4, some of which are completely fantastic (the pretzel and hotdog). You can also see her first draft completed in color.
