Essential Question: How (and why) in history
have people demonstrated that an object is important or special?
Illuminated manuscripts were created as early
as 1000-1500 years ago. The artists
would decorate or illuminate the first letter in an important book by adding
details and by finishing it with actual gold.
Third graders used sharpie and pencil to create these beautiful letters. Each letter includes a winding/scrolling thing, an animal, a pattern, and a plant. They illuminated their letters by using gold sharpie to highlight what they felt was the most important parts of their drawings.
