7 Easy Art Lessons About Monsters
7 Easy Art Sub Lessons About Monsters
Here are easy elementary art lessons about monsters (plus a bonus one!)
These would be great around Halloween time or to use with those units on monsters.
"There Be Monsters" is a lesson about sea monsters as they were drawn on ancient maps.
Students observe the old maps and monsters and create their own. You can find the lesson at my TPT Shop: There Be Monsters!
Originally, this lesson was posted on a blog called, “Clown and Poodle.” It appears that it no longer exists. However, I had written a blog post inspired by the original, and that still exists. You can see that complete lesson in my blog post here: Purple People Eater
Here’s a lesson at Ms. Pearce's Art Room called "Circle Monsters." Kids love
tracing shapes. Here they can create original monsters just by starting with tracing circles.
This "Name Alien" lesson is by We Heart Art.
This lesson ends up far from where it begins!
This sweet kindergarten lesson is by Artisan des Arts.
"Her Dabbles" came up with this lesson called Silly Monsters.
This Scribble Monster lesson came from "Art with Ms. B.”

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 Block Character - Art Worksheets Printables
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.
