I loved this project. This has now become my favorite 6th grade project. There were so many different elements that went into this project and 6th grade students rocked it! I was so impressed by the work they did. I have around 200 6th graders and this is just a handful of the drawings they did, but the majority of students were so successful and much of the results reflect the images in this post. We spent about 4 classes on this project. The first day we did a step by step drawing of a pop can. Students were then given a handout of about 10 different kinds of pop and they began drawing the logo. On the second day students finished drawing the logo and began shading in the pop can with drawing pencils and blending sticks. On the third day we talked a little bit about OP Art and created our backgrounds together. I did require students to have 4-5 circles on their drawing. We drew them together by tracing around circles around the classroom. They then had the option to create a checker board or the curved line background. They then filled in the background with markers. On the last day students finished the background by choosing the colors of the soda can to fill in with marker. Here are just SOME of the awesome drawings the 6th graders made. What do you think?

Since Summer is on he horizon, it only seems fitting to draw Summer stuff. Seashells are a great way to teach balance, symmetry, contour line and form. I created a number of How To Draw Sea Shell worksheets after studying shells myself. I am giving these to the students to practice with drawing the shells. Students will draw 3 or more shells (all the same or different) in the middle of their paper. Use a pencil and draw light, till you know it's right. Then go darker of use permanent marker. Use crayons to color the seashells (use lots of pressure to seal up all paper) In the center of the paper, with a white crayon, draw small circles clumped together like grape clusters. This will be a line of sea foam that divides the water from the sand. Drawing the sand dollar, starfish and scallop here in time lapse... Drawing the alphabet cone and wentel trap here in time lapse... Drawing the bubbles with white crayon, coloring the shells with crayons and painting the sand and water with tempera cakes. This is called the crayon resist method. the top portion above shells and bubbles with blues, greens and purples. Paint the bottom portion with yellows, oranges and browns. You should be able to paint on top of the seashells since you colored hard with crayon. The wax will resisit the watercolor and stay unaffected. Madelynn, KindergARTen Alternative Idea Use brown paper, draw the shells and outline with black marker.

Coming off of their autumn-y landscapes dotted with Aspen trees, fifth graders have moved on to seascapes. I've done seascapes for a few years but decided to mix things up this year, combining elements of projects I found here and here. Like that second plan suggests, I use this project to show the kids the work of Winslow Homer. The more I study his realistic oil paintings, the more I appreciate both his talent and dedication to the subject of the sea. This year, the kids looked at some of Homer's watercolors and oils before starting their own. Everyone chose a tempera paint color palette with which to cover a 12x18" sheet of white paper. They loved blending their colors and experimenting with brush techniques to achieve smooth waters or crashing seas. They added some sgraffito if desired. On this day, art class was sponsored by the letter M. For MESSY. On day two, all students painted another 12x18" sheet--this time, watercolors on watercolor paper--for the sky. This day was sponsored by the color blue, a.k.a. an excuse to wear my new blue pants. The 'ocean paper' was torn horizontally to create white waves and surf--so cool! These pieces were layered onto the watercolor paper to make sky and water meet. Lastly, we went over a few origami boat folds. Kiddos had lots of paper and sizes from which to choose. I required them to use differing sizes to demonstrate perspective. I pre-taught my Art Enrichment kids how to do the folds so they could teach the others. Pile-up in the marina! My fifth graders really enjoyed this mixed media approach--when I hear, "this is so cool!" and "woooow!" I want to do a happy little dance (and sometimes my blue pants and I indulge). Some kiddos really went wild with this. I had a few kids 'sink' their ships by ripping them in half, and others made little "S.O.S." flags or named their boats. One of my outside-the-box thinkers asked to use a black Sharpie to draw on the sky; I asked if she'd prefer to paint on clouds but she said she'd like to use the black marker. I said yes and she ended up with this rockin' result, graphic and bold like the rest of the artworks I've seen from her: Gosh I love these kids.
