Michelangelo
Buonarroti
By Mrs. Kravchak
Imagine a great attention getter here…

I KNOW! Let’s get some art supplies and paint under the desks…just like he
did in the Sistine Chapel

OR…I could dress up like Michelangelo & tell my story from his perspective.

OR…I could make a social media site about my life.

OR…I could just let my students come up with their own ideas.

LAST SLIDE: INFLUENCE/IMPACT & WHY
HE PICKED ME…
Consider the following:
• Impact: How he/she
remains alive in our
world today
• Influence: How did
he/she influence later
artists
• Picking you?: You’re on
your own 
Enough already!
Haven’t I given you
enough? Figure out your
own artist’s
impact…he/she chose
you after all!!
