Art Sub Plans - Silly Sundae Preview
Art Sub Lessons "Silly Sundae"
This is a preview of my art sub lesson called "Silly Sundae." I thought you would get more information from a preview of this lesson than just from one or two images. Find this fun elementary lesson at my TpT Shop: Art Sub Lessons.
This lesson is no prep and can be taught by anyone. All someone needs to do is to show each page; read the script, and follow the directions. Subs love my lessons because there is a lot of content and they will keep the students engaged for the entire class period.

Secret Rooms and Hidden Passageways
Art Sub Plan - Secret Rooms and Hidden Passageways
This is a lesson I named, "Secret Rooms and Hidden Passageways." Students look at a variety of hidden spaces in artwork; in history; and in imaginary images. They then create their own space with trap doors, hidden rooms, secret hallways, and all manner of spaces that are tucked away.

Dog Party - Preschool and Kindergarten Art
Preschool and Kindergarten Art Sub Plans
Take a look at the illustration from the book.
The original lesson has students using paint. Paint wouldn't be a medium you should leave for a sub unless you know the capabilities of the sub, but crayons will work nicely. Students will love hearing the storybook read to them. Likely, it will be a favorite. So, let your sub read that book to your students and then have the students draw their own dog party.
Read "Collage Mama's" blog post for more ideas on this lesson.

Insect Mandala - STEAM/STEM - Art Sub Lessons
Art Sub Lesson Plans for STEAM | Art and Math
This activity may be set up as a classroom learning center; an activity for early finishers; or as a teacher or sub led lesson.
This PowerPoint includes:
-Four drawing templates featuring spacing guidelines and lightly drawn insects. (Butterflies, spiders, crickets, and bees.)
-One drawing template featuring spacing guidelines without insects so that students may draw their own insects.
-Five sample drawings, showing a variety of media. They may be hung in the class as visuals for a lesson or hung in a learning center.
-One sheet with a composite of the sample drawings that may be hung in a learning center.
-One sheet of sample ways to divide a circle into a design of radial symmetry.
-Three sheets that include information about radial symmetry and directions on how to do the design.
The designs may be created with pen, crayon or marker.

Flower Mandala Worksheets - STEAM -
STEAM - Math and Art Lesson
This radial symmetry lesson is a STEAM lesson as it integrates math and art.
It could be used by elementary and middle school students.

Abstract Name Designs as Middle School Art Sub Plans
I would suggest that you make one art visual for each step and include directions. If the sub teacher cannot draw, these visuals should be descriptive enough. The sub can just show each visual, one at a time, and then post them on the board.
You need to do a little prep work, but not a lot of brain work. Whew! Yay! It's a nice lesson even if you don't save it for an absence.

STEAM Art Sub Lesson with Insects
STEAM Art Sub Lesson with Insects
It integrates science with art in an “ugly bug ball.” Including art history rounds this out even more!
The lesson begins with a discussion about masterpieces featuring insects by the artists Balthasar van der Ast, Nicolaes de Bruyn and then William Heath-Robinson. The lesson then leads the students to creating an imaginary scene of insects at a party. Each slide includes questions and statements for the students to think about including in their drawing.
I have taught this lesson to all levels, K through Fifth. My subs who have used this lesson have left feedback that they and the students thoroughly enjoyed the lesson.
I hope that this will be a well loved lesson for you and your students and that it helps you when you are in need of a sub lesson.
The materials needed for this lesson are the most simple: paper, pencils and crayons or markers. Here's what another buyer had so say about that: "Great lesson to leave for a sub as everything needed was included and the prep was minimal and used things commonly found in the art room. "
Here's a comment from a buyer: "The kids produced wonderful drawings and images. The sub used the plans for my intermediate groups grades 3-5 and she loved working with the kids as the plans were so meticulously laid out!"
