The Gingham Dog and the Calico Cat

The Gingham Dog and the Calico Cat

This is an art sub lesson that I created years ago and it has been an old favorite. It goes with the book/poem "The Gingham Dog and the Calico Cat." I wrote it specifically for primary art subs. It's over at TeachersPayTeachers. I tried to make it as simple as possible. If you have the book and simple supplies, you are ready to take a day of leave. = )

Art Sub Plans for Elementary on Wayne Thiebaud

Free Art Worksheet and Plans for Wayne Thiebaud lesson


Thanks to Jessica Young for sharing this link with me.

This free art worksheet can be found over at the blog, Art with Ms. Gram, you'll find instructions and handouts that a sub would probably find successful.  

Yay for handouts for subs!!!


If you would like a video to introduce Wayne Thiebaud, I created one and uploaded it to YouTube. You can find it here:  The Delicious Paintings of Wayne Thiebaud




Another easy way to prepare for an art sub is to go to my shop, Art Sub Plans. I have created complete lessons in which all your sub has to do is read the slides and follow the directions.  They are full of visuals and are created to be used with the most simple supplies.  Pencils, paper and crayons are all your students will need to create imaginative works of art.

These are perfect for those emergency absences when you do not have the time to write detailed plans but want to leave quality plans for your subs.
