1st grade Rainbow Rockets

​

Last week, our young artists had a blast creating these rocket-themed masterpieces while exploring line, pattern, and color blending! This project inspired by @Ms.tice_is_nice (Alyssa Tice), combines bold drawing with vibrant color s for a result that really pops.

✏️ What We Learned

Students focused on:

• Types of lines (zig-zag, curved, spiral, scalloped)
• Pattern and repetition
• Warm and cool colors
• What happens when the colors get wet and blend together

We talked about how lines can show movement and energy, just like a rocket zooming through space!

 Step-by-Step Process

5th grade Andy Warhol inspired Pop Art

The past couple of weeks, 5th grade has been working on this Andy Warhol and Pop Art inspired work of art! This is one of my last art on a cart lessons, and is great for someone in that situation. All you need is paper, pencils, Sharpies, and markers! Here's how we created them!

2nd grade Ugly Sweater Bears

Here's another great idea from Art Room Britt! Their bears looked so fun and cute, I thought they'd be a great thing to do with just a few days left until break! I did these with 2nd grade (normally our rowdiest grade besides 5th) and they were quiet as church mice!! That's unheard of, this time of year! They loved drawing out the bears and adding the details to their sweater! Each one was cute, and unique!

Here's how we created ours!

4th & 5th Grade Romero Britto Self-Portraits

4th grade has been working on their Romero Britto style self-portrait, inspired by Cassie Stephens, for a few weeks now, and they're turning out so well!
