This art history lesson focuses on the artist, Claude Monet, his life, and his influence on the Impressionist style. A deep dive into his life, other artists in the Impressionism movement, and more are included in this art history lesson. Two presentations and activities are included for younger grades or adapted students and for middle and high school students.
