Silly Monsters Idea for an Art SubLesson

Silly Monsters for an Art Sub Lesson

You could DEFINITELY come up with a lesson plan for this one!   "Silly Monsters" from the blog "Her Dabbles." She used it with second grade. I know lots of elementary grades, including kindergarten, have units of fun studies related to monsters.

Here’s another fun thing I found on the web. A “monster name generator.” Need an inspiration for the monster or just need help with naming one? Here’s a place to visit.  

Monster Name Generator. You kind of have to visit it just to play around with it for fun.

Art Sub Lesson Video: Tar Beach

I love showing kids art videos that are related to the lesson. Here's one of my own.  It's a video I created for the sub to show the class.  The kids follow along with the video.  Click here for the video: Tar Beach

I did this lesson with my students plenty of times and they loved it! I love it when kids get to use their imaginations to create something that is personal to them.

You might want an art sub lesson for Tar Beach already written up. You can pick one up here on my TPT site: Art Sub Lesson: I'm Flying.

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.
