Aztec Suns Art Lesson for Subs

 Aztec Suns Art Lesson

In the blog, “What’s Happening in the Art Room??”, Ms. VandenBush shows examples of student work from a lesson on Aztec Suns. The lesson incorporates lines; warm and cool colors; and color blending into a striking design that could be adapted for a sub. 


Elementary or Middle School Art Sub Plan

You can check out this lesson here:  4th Grade Aztec Sun. She has posted several examples and her directions are in the comments section. The lesson she taught was with 4th grade, but this lesson would transfer beautifully with older students.

If you are interested in a fully formed art lesson written specifically for a sub, check out this lesson in my TPT shop:  Flowers in a Vase.


All the directions and examples that your sub will need are provided for you. The materials are  super simple ones; paper and crayons or markers.

Art Sub Plans - Silly Sundae Preview

Art Sub Lessons "Silly Sundae"

Find relief when you have an emergency absence. Writing lesson plans for a sub when you are in a rush, feels horrible. Don't stress out when you don't need to.  I have complete no-prep lesson plans already fully formed for you.


This is a preview of my art sub lesson called "Silly Sundae." I thought you would get more information from a preview of this lesson than just from one or two images. Find this fun elementary lesson at my TpT Shop: Art Sub Lessons. 














This lesson is no prep and can be taught by anyone.  All someone needs to do is to show each page; read the script, and follow the directions. Subs love my lessons because there is a lot of content and they will keep the students engaged for the entire class period.

Circle Monsters.  This lesson idea could easily be used as a sub lesson.  You can find this idea over on Mrs. Pearce's Art Room blog.

If you liked that lesson, you might also like this no-prep art sub lesson at my TeachersPayTeachers shop. The Ugly Bug Ball.

I have taught this lesson to all levels, Kindergarten through Fifth Grade.  The kids love it!

There's also a monster drawing worksheet for Early Finishers, also at my TPT shop.

Dinosaur Maze Art Lesson

Dinosaur Maze Art Lesson

Here's a link to an idea from a couple of years ago. An art sub could teach this one.


Child drawing of a maze in the shape of a dinosaur

If you look on the web, you can find directions for how to create a simple maze. Here is one I liked: Design a Maze

She even links to her own video on YouTube for how to create one, which would be really helpful for the kids to see.

Maze Making as an Art Sub Lesson

Maze Making as an Art Sub Lesson

Thanks so much to Elizabeth for sending this one my way.  Check out her blog and this sub appropriate lesson at Dream Painters:  A-Mazing Dinosaurs


Child drawing of dinosaur maze


This lesson is based on a idea from a puzzle web site that included mazes. Elizabeth had her student create their own mazes. 

 
There are lots of maze resources on the web that could help you and a sub.  Here is a video I like:  How to Draw a Maze (EASY!). If you have a sub who can work your technology, this would be a food lesson to demonstrate the idea. If you don’t have that luxury of a tech savvy sub or you just don’t have the resources available to show a video, this will help you write up the instructions for yourself.

Romero Britto Art Sub Lesson

Romero Britto Art Lesson


This lesson is simple but has striking results. The combination of cubism and pop art make appealing inspiration pieces for kids art lessons when combined with vibrant colors and bold pattern. An art sub could be very successful in leading this lesson.

 

This lesson, featuring the art of Romero Britto, uses simple materials; paper and markers. Markers give the art work that bright color that is a hallmark of Britto’s work. Students create a simple design and add pattern to the shapes. They color it in.
