This Urban Desire lesson plan also includes:

Urban spaces are often overlooked and broken down. Offer your pupils the opportunity to reimagine an urban space. Learners examine and discuss works of art related to this theme and consider their own communities. Small groups then select a site needing renewal and photograph it or take a video. On large paper, they illustrate their vision of how they would improve the area. Close with class presentations.
