The Right Brain Initiative
Sitton with Sarah Ferguson | February 2013
Through The Right Brain Initiative, 3rd graders at Sitton Elementary in North Portland worked with visual artist Sarah Ferguson of Young Audiences. Students explored Oregon history through mapmaking and clay. Here, they collaborate on a clay mural that depicts Oregon geography. Equipped with the tools of critical thinking and creativity, the students created maps, illustrated features, and devised a legend.
