These planets look as great in person as they do in these photos! There are a few versions of this project out there, so I don't get any points for originality, but regardless, it's a great project and more importantly, the kids really seemed to like creating them. The project took about 5-40 minute periods. On day 1 I showed everyone how to create the "waves" and blend them in an upward facing direction. On day 2 I set up a splatter paint station and demo'd how to start shading the planets. I flipped this lesson and used mostly video demo's which was incredibly useful because it took the kids 3 perios to complete the planets. So instead of having to demo the shading every period for my 5-5th grade groups, I just replayed the video and they saved on work and transition time. They had to make 5 or more planets. On the final day they cut and glued their planets, making sure all the shadows were on the same side. We discussed light sources and I explained that on a 2D surface, having a consistent light source would make their art look better even though they pointed out to me that in space there would most likely be multiple light sources ah, my 5th graders always thinkin!).

Master your classroom management in the art room with this Mona Lisa Quiet poster. Remind students to keep their voices off, their eyes on the teacher, their hands still and their bodies seated. Available in two digital sizes to be printed at your school: 12x18 inches and 24x36 inches (pdf files). Also, did you know that the Mona Lisa used to have eyebrows?! An overly-enthusiastic restorer from a long, long time ago accidentally removed them. Yikes!
My daughter and I love the famous artists. We also love playing around with different paint techniques. We combined the two for these Monet inspired landscape sponge paintings.

I've got a Spaceman Freebie but first, I have some new products added to my Teachers Pay Teachers store: ⤤ SUPER EASY to implement - GREAT for the first weeks of school!!!! Click on the pictures to check them out or click HERE to visit my Teachers Pay Teachers store and click HERE to get a FREE kit each month!! Wonder how many times I've had to remind students to use spaces between words when writing? Maybe a million! I've been wanting some "spacemen" to help students remember to use those spaces, so I decided to make some. If you would like to make some too, I have a free download for you right here: {Click here or on the picture to download} BTW, I post a lot of freebies on my blog - if you don't want to miss any of them, make sure to click on this button follow me on bloglovin': There are a couple of ways to do this - the easiest would be to print on cardstock, laminate, and cut into strips. They can be used this way, might get a little worn after a while but it would be easy enough to replace them each school year. To make them super sturdy, I wanted to make mine to fit on large craft sticks (the kind sized 6 inches x 3/4 inch). I bought these at Walmart: I tried using Mod Podge at first, and that worked good, but I realized I had a MUCH easier way to do it so I broke out my trusty Xyron machine with the laminate/permanent adhesive cartridge: This: That's the smaller one, that works just as good, I have the larger one here: I got mine years ago and it's a lot cheaper now! I loaded in the printout of Spacemen... and out they came, laminated with permanent adhesive on the back. Then I just cut out on the lines (I used my paper cutter) and peeled the backing off to stick on the craft stick. I have these sized to fit the craft sticks exactly with just a little extra on the top and bottom. I made that extra space on purpose - here's a little trick to trim off that top and bottom and make it perfectly molded to the stick. Use a fingernail file! Just use a downward motion pressing the file to the stick where the paper is hanging over. It files the paper and laminate away and shapes it to the edges of the stick: Now they are ready to use!!
This moon craft is great for preschool, kindergarten, first grade, or older kids. It's a great art extension during a space theme in the classroom.
