Here is the latest batch of artwork from my students, who shared their beautiful creations from home and the art lesson activities!
Grades K-2 Elementary Visual Art Activities
I can draw a pot of flowers: Using a pencil, trace 3-4 circle shapes to begin your drawing. Be sure to include the parts of a flower: stems, petals and leaves. Add a pot design at the bottom if desired, then add color!
Included in that Google slide were 4 pictures from start to finish showing steps on how to draw flowers using various sized circular objects for the center to the finished drawing with a pot. Also included were links to 2 short videos students could watch. One was about flowers; their importance and taking a closer look at the flowers parts, as well as a video on how to draw a flower and a flower pot. Here are some lovely flowers drawn by my K-2 students!
Grades 3-5 Elementary Visual Art Activities
I can create an OP art drawing: OP Art is drawing an optical illusion. The way the lines are drawn, makes them appear to “pop out” or move.
Included in this google slide were 3 drawings, one just as a pencil drawing so you can see the lines easier, and the other two colored in. In addition, students could watch a short 6 minute YouTube video showing kids how to create an Op art drawing as well!
My students did an awesome job creating their op art! Check them out below!
Grades K-2 Elementary Visual Art Activities
I can create: A portrait or self-portrait using a round (circle) shaped plate.
Included in this Google slide were a variety of portraits using plates to create the head, descriptions on the difference between a portrait and a self-portrait, as well as a 3 min. video on found object art plate faces. Check out the artwork below!
Bryce R. (below) created some super cool vehicles using plates and other materials! Very creative!
Grades 3-5 Elementary Visual Art Activities
I Can: Observe and record shadows. Draw the contour lines!
Included in this slide were photos of plants leaves casting shadows on paper with a close up pic of all the contour lines drawn of that leaf, pictures of various toys lined up with their fun shadows cast onto paper, and 2 short videos; one showing how to create a shadow drawing, and the other short video was the science behind lights and shadows.
My students had a lot of fun creating these!
