Art Sub Plans - Collaborative Creatures

Collaborative Creatures - Back to School Art Sub Plans

This open-ended, creative lesson can double as an art sub-plan and a back-to-school lesson. Katie Weymouth has posted it over on her blog, Briargrove Elementary Art Page. 

Katie has given detailed instructions on how to teach this lesson and has provided tons of student created artwork. That’s one of the reasons this is such a nice sub plan. It is so ready for you to print out and hand to a sub.

Back to School Art Sub Plans - Dot Day

Dot Day for Back to School Art 

Teachers love to integrate Dot Day into their Back to School lessons since, for many, they happen around the same time. (September)

 

Here are Dot Day lessons from Ms. O’Hanley, Tales from the Traveling Art Teacher  She’s got a video link and multiple lesson ideas that a sub could do.  

 

One of my favorites is this radial symmetry design done on a paper plate.  Check it out! 

Art Sub Plan for Back to School - Emoji

Back to School Art Idea

***Note: The original post that I linked to here no longer exists. Actually, so far as I can tell, the whole blog is gone.  But here is my original post.***

Kids would love to do this if they had a sub in art.  You could print out samples of emoji and have the students create new ones.  This plan could easily be adapted to crayon.  Check this idea out over at:  Room (: Art!
