All-In-One

This project hits it all: Line, shape, and pattern! Simply start by creating a line that goes all over your paper. It will overlap itself, go up and down, make different shapes, and end on the other side of the paper. Then have students identify shapes that they have created. They now have the option of filling in shapes with solid color or a pattern. Encourage plenty of variety and the projects turn out amazing!







Here are a few student examples created by some of my kindergartners

Pattern Quilt

After a lesson on how pattern is used in art, the 1st graders each made their own pattern quilt. I had the template already made and copied for everyone, they then filled in the squares using patterns in texture and color.
