*THIS LESSON IS INCLUDED IN THE KINDERART CLUB MEMBERSHIP* In this activity, children will learn how to turn a two-dimensional picture into a painting with three dimensional effects. They will also learn about hues, tints and shades as squares become cubes, circles become spheres and triangles become cones. Designed for K-5 (ages 5-11), this art lesson uses basic art supplies and shows you how to teach the material step-by-step. The pack includes the following: Lesson plan with full color, step-by-step photos Student examples Paintable templates Hints and tips Book recommendations ----------------------------------- About the Author: ----------------------------------- Andrea Mulder-Slater has been an art educator for 25 years and an art curriculum developer for 18 years. She is also a professional artist and a homeschooler. In addition to teaching art and art history classes and workshops at the elementary, secondary and post-secondary levels, Andrea has worked as an educational consultant on various art education projects. Together with her mom Jantje, she created KinderArt® in 1997. It’s a website offering FREE art lessons, which has been visited more than 100 million times in the last ten years alone. That’s a lot of children affected by art! Andrea also writes about parenting, creativity and homeschooling for CBC, YMC, WDish, Today’s Parent, Creatubbles, the Association of Curriculum Development and Little Passports. Andrea’s passion lies in helping teachers and parents bring out the creativity in their children and students, even if they don’t consider themselves artists. Her detailed child-tested lesson plans are easy to implement, and are guaranteed to promote creative exploration in small or large group settings. Most of all, the lessons are effective and they encourage individuality. ----------------------------------- About the KinderArt Method: ----------------------------------- The KinderArt Method focuses on individual creative exploration. With that in mind, our lesson plans are designed to be adaptable, meaning you can use them for a wide range of ages. In this way, you can cover the same skills and techniques with all of your students while giving them the freedom to learn at their own level. So, instead of prepping for a multitude of lessons for all of your classes, you only need to prep for one. The goal is to allow your students the ability to make choices as they follow the lesson, whether it be through decisions about what colors to use or what kinds of lines to draw. Examples are included where possible to show you that even with the same set of directions, children can and will create completely unique works of art (even when the lessons are step-by-step). Allow for some independence and you will be amazed at the results. Also, the material lists often give you the option of more than one art medium. This is so you can work with what you have, instead of feeling as though you need to run to the store or order in expensive materials. One final tip: If you are short on time, simply reduce the size of the project, or - swap out supplies (ie: use markers instead of paint). Where there is a will, there is a way. ----------------------------------- Have you Joined the Club? ----------------------------------- This lesson is included in The KinderArt Club.

The single-colored lime wallpaper Shades Sandstone has a matt, slightly powdery surface that is discreetly mottled in a warm, sand-beige shade. The surface is reminiscent of a wall painted with lime paint in large, sweeping brushstrokes. Stripped and genuine, but also sober and with a cozy, slightly rustic feel. In the Shades of Chalk series, there are 31 wallpapers with the same beautiful lime surface. Several go in just beige tones. Feel free to order wallpaper samples at home so you can compare more easily.

Not sure when my obsession with installation art started but it's been unrelenting by holding my attention in a serious way for at least the past year. I honestly feel like if I didn't love my job (right now) so much and feel like I really was answering a divine calling to do it, I would easily dive head first into the world of installation art and try any carve out my place in it. I first stumbled upon this project idea on Princentenol under the name Tint and Shade Ceiling Hanging. I LOVED the idea of doing it but felt like it needed a little bit of something more to it so I mentally bookmarked it and then just forgot about it. Time passed, I got bored with some of what I had been doing in the 3D Design class, and a dug it back up in an effort to indulge my installation art obsession. The learning objectives behind this project are multi-layered and touch upon so many great things... Technique of painting evenly and with careful brush strokes Experiencing tempera paint and understanding why it is so awesome Color mixing, tinting, and shading Understanding and creating geometric and organic shapes Learning how art can be used to transform and reshape space For as simple as the project was, it was also pretty challenging. While I normally do lessons/projects that last about 2-3 weeks, this one easily took five total. It really required the kids to stay on task and stay the course even when it seemed like the work was becoming monotonous and redundant - because, seriously? It was once it came time to draw and cut each of the 144 shapes that were needed to make up the 72 pairs of shapes that would hang off of each of their rings. Since I share a classroom with my part-time colleague, storage is ALWAYS a challenge and this project didn't help at all. Thankfully, the issue was attended to beautifully by hanging things from the ceiling up by the front of the classroom/teacher's podium - this was to help keep students from wanting to bat at them while they moved around the class. The whole installation is mostly hung up right now with the exception of a few yellow pairings that I have to finish up quickly and get hung up because few people wanted to take on the task of that color. The most popular colors were red, orange, and blue overall. Kind of surprised me that orange was so popular but it's my favorite so I was delighted that so many of the kids wanted to do it. Here is what our exhibit "The Ombre Experience" looks like hung up in the student gallery hallway... I feel like (for the most part) I'm pretty pleased with it. We've gotten a lot of really great feedback on it and though I would have liked it to have filled out the space a little more, what it does look like really works for the space.

We are currently starting our final projects of the year. [I can't believe it!] But for now, let me catch you up on what we just finished... 5th and 4th grade have been working on the same concepts for the past two projects. Both grades participated in a school wide Egyptian art unit by creating Egyptian sarcophagi. They reviewed SYMMETRY, and learned about hieroglyphics. After that, they learned about creating TINTS and SHADES by making an undersea painting. You can find these handouts here- http://www.teachandshoot.com/2015/02/art-room-handouts-round-3-value.html I would have let the students have more freedom with other colors, but I really only had blue left, and underwater came to mind. Thanks for visiting! 3rd grade also participated in the Egyptian art unit by creating Egyptian PORTRAITS! This might be my favorite project from this year. What a wonderful job the students did! After that, 3rd grade made ORIGAMI frogs, but I forgot to take photos! After origami, 3rd grade started creating ASSEMBLAGE art like the artist Louise Nevelson. They are just starting to paint their sculptures this week! 2nd grade created a fun pyramid COLLAGE as part of the Egyptian art unit! After that, 2nd and 1st grade both created ABSTRACT Picasso PORTRAITS. 1st grade and kindergarten created Egyptian necklaces and learned a little bit about PERSPECTIVE by drawing the pyramids. Kindergarten just finished learning about weaving by creating some alligator WEAVINGs!
