FUN WITH FONTS!
For Grades K – 5
During this in-museum field trip, a MODA instructor will lead students through an introduction to typography and exploration of how different fonts can express various emotions. Designers will learn about different types of fonts and discover how each can be used to communicate an emotion.
After analyzing various forms of typography, students will participate in a hands-on activity where they will design letters based on randomly selected emotions.
Along the way, we’ll practice thinking like designers by focusing on empathy, ideation, prototyping, and testing.
