First few weeks of Art

I am taking on a new adventure this school year. I am teaching art to grades K-5 at my school. It has been a great learning experience and lots of fun so far.
Here are a few projects we have created, thanks to great art teacher blogs and Pinterest!

This week 4th and 5th graders made this optical illusion project.
Here is one of my 5th graders artwork.

Last week  4th and 5th graders created artwork using various types of lines and patterns. I found this project on the blog Blue Moon Palette. I changed the directions a little by not requiring a ribbon and making sure the students used various listed types of lines.


My K and 1st graders worked on lines also. I made a line worksheet for the students to practice their lines. (Got the idea from a blog, but can't remember which one) Below is a picture of a student completing their worksheet.
So these are a few of the projects so far, more to come....
