2nd Grade
Learned all about cave art. Students were given examples of animals and symbols to draw on butcher paper, they then colored with oil pastels. The best part was telling them they had to crumble their work up. Finally they signed their work with their hand print and white paint. I then created this cool cave to display their work.
1st Grade Wayne Thiebaud primary color inspired Ice Cream cones. students traced their hands to create scoops of ice cream, then drew and cut out triangle for cone.
2nd Grade Wayne Thiebaud inspired Gum ball Machines.
1st grade used white paint to make stars and moon on black construction paper. They then cut out shapes and glued them on paper to create houses and buildings resembling their community. I absolutely love how these came out.
My 4th graders really enjoyed this lesson. After tracing their hands and feet, they drew and colored themselves as astronauts. Then they painted the background black and used oil and chalk pastels for stars, planets, UFO’s, etc.
I gave each student a circle in which they had to draw a radial design then cut in fourths and paste on the corners of a square sheet of card stock. I then put them all together to make this beautiful mural piece for the front receptionist desk😍
Place your Completed Exit Ticket Here!
I collect the Exit Tickets daily and write comments, then I give my students an Emoji sticker, stating how I feel they did on the lesson and place it in their mailbox. This is also a great way to collect data and your students will love it.
A fun modern innovative way for students to go when they are done with their projects and reflect on the lesson. Students go to the Exit Table and fill out their Tickets before leaving class. they can also play an Emoji memory game, Emoji Dice, Art Bingo, or Art Dice if they have extra time. My students absolutely LOVE the whole Emoji idea. On the wall I also have the history of Emoji’s and how they were created.
KONICHIWA!
My goal is to give my students memorable experiences and not just teach lessons. I want them to learn about different cultures and develop an appreciation. My “Welcome to Japan” lesson is part of my “Art around the world unit. They will learn about Japanese Art, language, clothes, food, culture and traditions. Before they enter my class they need to present their passport. They will then be interviewed prior to entering and their passports will be stamped. They enjoy every minute. They are my Lil’ Samurai’s and I am “Sensei Perez”
