Early Finishers Worksheets and Art Subs Lessons

Art Worksheets Elementary and Middle School

Teacher, I'm done. What do I do next?" A dreaded question, especially for a substitute teacher.  Answer: Art Worksheets 

I have been creating fun classroom activities for years. Kids love them!  These drawing worksheets will also work great at home for distance learning. As a bonus, you can use these as art sub plans worksheets too!

Each worksheet has a lightly drawn outline of a character surrounded by images of possible cartoon features. Students choose the details they want and add them to the character. 

Typically, I sell these on TPT for $.99 apiece, but recently I have added them as a bundle option.  In a bundle of 21, you save over $5.

The worksheets include these characters: block people, dragon, Jack O'Lanterns, bunny, reindeer, turkey, panda, trolls, elves, penguins, monster, gingerbread house, monkey, yeti, turtle, frog, claw machine, groundhog, nutcracker, leprechaun, and Little Red Riding Hood.

Explorers and Sea Monsters - Middle School Art

Art Sub Lessons: Sea Monsters 





Who wouldn't love learning about sea monsters! If your students are learning about the "age of exploration" or "European explorers," they will enjoy this art lesson plan. Students will learn about maps created by ancient navigators and the sea monsters that often appear on those maps. Then they will create a drawing of their own imaginary sea monsters. 

It was written with substitute teachers in mind, so it is written with a full script and tons of visuals.  It can be taught successfully by anyone. It is no prep and uses the most simple materials.  Paper and pencil. Crayons, pens, and markers could be added. It is presented as a PowerPoint but can be converted to Google slides if you want to use it in that manner.  Make your life a little bit easier with this already prepared activity.

Here’s Where You Can Find This Lesson

This is where you can find the middle school lesson:  Sea Monsters.
