12 Winter Art Sub Plans and Early Finishers

 

12 Winter Art Sub Lessons and Worksheets

This time of year so many people need art activities for early finishers, art sub plans, and just plain art lessons, that are not specifically Christmas themed. Here are seasonal art lessons that will excite your kids in December or the winter.

First off are a couple of free directed drawings I posted on this blog. The first one shows how to draw, step by step, a gingerbread man. The second one shows how to draw a Christmas tree.

Art Worksheets for Winter

Winter Worksheets

During the month of December, there are always reasons you can't get through a complete class period. Assemblies. Extra kids added to your class for a day. Sub lessons. You are left scrambling to find something easy enough for kids to do at the spur of the moment but interesting enough to keep them engaged.

I created art worksheets to help you out with those circumstances. KIDS.....LOVE.....THESE....THINGS. And for .99, you will love them too!

Here are some of them made just for winter.
