Christmas Worksheets for Early Finishers - Art Worksheets Printables

Are your students getting "squirrelly"? The closer it gets to Christmas, the busier they seem. If they are finishing their work and are in need of engagement, try one of these holiday worksheets. They are fun and creative. They could be a HUGE HELP to your subs!!!
This December worksheet for early finishers is a creative activity and time filler. Students will enjoy drawing this reindeer in disguise. A sub would also enjoy having an activity to hand to students who need to occupy their time when their assignment is complete. This worksheet shows sample details, but students are encouraged to invent their own. The only supplies needed are pencils and crayons.

Kindergarten Worksheet for Shapes and Animals Art Sub Plan

Kindergarten students learn about shapes in their math, reading, and science curricula, so it integrates naturally into art. Emphasizing shapes in art is a great way to reinforce the learning of shapes in all those other areas.

Here are some art lessons that use shape and would work well as art sub lessons. 

Make an animal out of cut shapes. In the blog,  Art On My Hands, she  has the shapes already printed out and ready to be cut out.

This next idea is really interesting. The teacher has students draw around pre-glued shapes on their paper. I believe that this is good practice for shape drawing. Students haven't perfected it yet, but they are heading in the right direction.

Now, the shapes were cut and glued by the students. If you knew that you had a sub during the next meeting with this class, this line drawing lesson could be a follow-up to that.  The shapes would have already been cut, glued, and dry. 

                                              

You may see this lesson at Annie's Art Room.

If you are interested in a kindergarten directed drawing about shapes, and was specifically made for art subs, check out this lesson in my TPT Shop:  Springtime Bird with Pattern and Flowers.

It uses just simple materials: crayon and paper.  It is also no prep, fully scripted, and editable in the lesson portion of the PowerPoint.

The lesson also introduces the students to four artists from history with their paintings of birds.

Thanks so much, Jessica, for sending along this sub lesson.  She uses it as a time fill if she needs to, but says that you could also leave it as a sub plan.  Jessica says "if anyone wants me to send them the original in an email, to comment on my post :) "  Check out her sub lesson on her blog, "Miss Young's Art Room."
