For this year’s One Room Challenge I will be making over MY ENTRYWAY! I ultimately decided on this space because it has so much potential and I had a lot of fun projects in mind for it that I thought would be perfect to showcase in this challenge. It’s not a space we use much right now or that I hav
is lesson features Artist Clare Youngs and introduces Collage to Grades kindergarten, 1st grade, 2nd grade and 3rd grade. In this lesson, students will explore the concept of community and the importance of diversity by creating a collaborative neighborhood collage. They will be encouraged to think about the different people, places, and things that make their neighborhood unique and special. This lesson also offers numerous opportunities to integrate with other subjects. Here are just a few ideas: Social Studies: Use the lesson to discuss the different cultures and traditions that are present in your students' neighborhoods, and how they contribute to a larger community. Language Arts: Have students write descriptive paragraphs or poems about their favorite places in their neighborhood, which can be incorporated into the collage. Math: Use the lesson to teach concepts such as measurement and proportion, as students work to create collage elements that fit together seamlessly. Science: Discuss the environmental impact of recycling materials, and how art can be a powerful tool for promoting sustainability in our communities. What you will find inside the lesson: Teacher prompts for you to read as you give the lesson making it EASY to teach! Glossary of art terms Brief discussion of each topic that is simple and easy to comprehend Questions to ask the students about the art Step by step DETAILED instructions for an art project with FULL COLOR pictures. INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO CONFORM THIS LESSON TO COMMON CORE STANDARDS Art work to show as examples Comprehension questions Worksheet for you to extend the learning that feature key facts about each art project Word search and/or coloring page for fast finishers Worksheet where students have the opportunity to give you feedback about the projects Make sure to click the GREEN STAR near my store name so that you can stay in touch with my store.

a great intro to architecture and housing Kindergarteners learned about different kinds of architecture, and who an architect is in the community. We used stamp printing techniques to create the geometric shapes that make up a building. Legos, marker tops, cardboard scraps, sponge shapes and cardboard tubes were dipped in white paint and stamped on blue paper, creating "blueprints." Although this project is a little messy, the results are so worth it! stamping lines with cardboard adding flags with a triangle sponge

Positive and negative space can be tricky concepts to teach. The Japanese art of notan, some simple leaf shapes, and a quick intro to complementary colors is a fun way to explore the idea. These painted paper cuts go quickly so you'll want to make more than one!
For one of our first projects I decided to do drip paintings. Second through Forth grade studied and learned about the works of Jackson Pollack, an Abstract Expressionist artist. We used the marble technique to roll different layers of colors onto the paper. These were a lot of fun and the kids were excited about doing this. Fifth Graders enjoyed their sculptural drip paintings modeled after the works of Holton Rower. This was a fun line study, where students could see the lines in motion. Once they finished this project they were asked to write a paragraph on the process or their opinion of the artwork. This is a new procedure I am currently asking 5th grade to do after each project. Soon 4th and 3rd will be asked to make their artist statements for their artwork as well. I introduced radial balance to 2nd and 3rd graders for this project. This is a watercolor project with black sharpie on top. Students were asked to use the six basic lines and some simple shapes to create their balanced piece. I think for an introduction they did really well. Kinder and 1st graders really enjoyed listening to classical selections and drawing the lines that evoked emotion. We talked about lines in artwork, just like music, can make you feel happy, scared, excited, relaxed, etc. So as the music played they were able to illustrate those feelings through line and color. As a kinder and 1st project we read the book The Dot. A cute story about a little girl who discovers art through a simple series of dot paintings. The students were able to paint their own dot, or not-a-dot, with watercolors. This was a nice simple opportunity for students to use paints and learn the expectations for using watercolors. Ask them why brushes don't like bad hair days! This is also a Kinder and 1st grade project, and I'll be honest, I skipped a little ahead of myself. After days and days and days of 100+ degree weather, part of me wanted to feel like fall was on its way. So we did a little one day project talking about warm colors. We discussed the difference between evergreen trees and deciduous trees. And, we also talked about the reasons these trees lose their leaves, which is to conserve water and better survive the winter months. Sort of a tree hibernation period. The kids loved getting messy and doing the layers of paint. Forth and Fifth graders have spent the last 3 weeks and we just started the 4th week of working on their horse portraits. These are some of the first ones to be almost done! They have worked really hard on these and while you can't see the size, these are 18 by 24". I used this as a line study piece. We started on small pieces of paper to decide which horse to draw, then once that was decided we practiced and practiced getting larger and filling space. We also really worked on drawing those light lines that can be easily erased, that doesn't sound hard, but may have been the hardest part of drawing these portraits. Once they finish the final size they use charcoal to add value and chalk pastel for that pop of color. They are coming along really nicely!
