Print Lesson Activity

 

Activity:
For this activity, you will need white print paper, a piece of construction paper, a marker, stencils, a roller, and glue. You will also need a print pad or a gel pad. You will apply the paint on the gel pad and then roll it so it covers the entire pad. After you roll the paint, you will need to put the stencil you choose on top of the paint and then put the paper on top and roll the paper so the paint transfers onto the paper. After that, you let it dry. Next, you will need to trace the chameleon shape onto the paper you painted and cut them out. After you cut them out, you will glue them onto the construction paper into the shape of the chameleon. 
Extended Activity:
For an extended activity, you could have students talk in groups or write down what their chameleon eats or what their chameleon does for fun. This extended activity incorporates language arts into the fun art lesson!

Project #1 Foot Print Introduction

Image
Description: This activity was used to introduce ourselves to the classroom. We traced our footprint on construction paper and cut it out. We were to include names and symbols while using three different media types to represent aspects of our lives. Some of the supplies I used with my footprint were crayons, markers, pens, pencils, colored pencils, scissors, and glue. (Rubric below) Extension activity: As a future teacher, I could extend this activity by having students measure items in the room like a desk, how many steps to the door from the front of the room, etc. Then have students think pair share about how many steps they counted and why they think each student has a different amount of steps.

Project 4: Vincent Van Gogh

Image
  Activity:  For this activity, we began by using tissue paper and acrylic paint to create a vibrant background. We selected various pieces of tissue paper to glue onto a sheet of construction paper, forming a unique base for our artwork. Next, we took a second piece of construction paper to design our main picture. For instance, I cut out shapes to create mountains and a volcano, which I glued onto the background. To add more detail, I used oil pastels to draw a blue house and a person with their hands on their mouth, gazing in awe at the erupting volcano. The combination of materials really brought the scene to life! (emphasis) Extension Activity:  An engaging extension activity for this tissue paper and acrylic paint project could involve creating a storytelling component. After completing their artwork, students can write a short story or narrative that explains the scene they’ve created. This could include details about the characters, the setting, and the events unf...

Finger Painting Lesson Activity

Image
Activity:  We used red and yellow paint, construction paper, crayons, and pencils for this activity. We started by lining our hands/arms to make the tree stump. Then, we colored in the tree using a brown crayon. After that, we used the red and yellow paint to mix our orange paint. We used our fingers to dip it into the paint and press over the tree branches to create a full-looking tree. After creating our tree, we made leaf piles on the ground and leaves falling off the tree.  Extension Activity:  To extend this activity, students can develop a narrative centered around their tree, incorporating additional details such as individuals playfully jumping into the leaves or families gathering beneath the tree for photographs. Students should write a brief composition describing their tree, elaborating on these imaginative elements to enhance their storytelling.
