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!

Create a Character - Art Sub Plan and Early Finishers
This drawing worksheet includes directions; sample details; and a lightly drawn in character. All you need to do is print and distribute. Great for centers, early finishers, and art sub plans worksheets too!
Here is feedback from a middle school teacher: "My Middle School Art students enjoyed this assignment. It allows for a range of art supplies at home- so they all felt successful !"
Worksheets for Early Finishers are the perfect tools to engage students with time on their hands. Your art subs will adore you for leaving worksheets for those empty minutes, but you will appreciate them just as much.This is a quick art project for early finishers. There are three worksheets included. One worksheet has a figure lightly drawn in and students create their own characteristics over it. Another is the same worksheet but the character is drawn darkly. The last worksheet is a full page character with nothing else. Students may create characters from stories, movies, sports, hobbies or their own imaginations. There are sample body features that they may use or they may invent those too. There are teacher samples included so that you don't have to spend the time to do it yourself!
This may also be an inspiration for a writing assignment.

Easy Art Plans for Subs
Easy Art Sub Plans
Here are a couple of "easy sub lessons" from Dali's Moustache. One is a third grade lesson about Jackson Pollack's action paintings. The other is a fourth grade lesson called "crayon fireworks."
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.

Art Sub Plan Idea - Easy Shape Tracing
Art Sub Plan Idea - Easy Shape Tracing
From experience, I know that kids love tracing. Cans. Coffee lids. Flat tools. The more diverse, the better. Crayons are a perfect medium here and great to leave with subs.
Get inspiration from this gorgeous lesson from The Moffatt Girls.
