Miss Sarah's Art Gallery

For this project it was designed for a fourth grade classroom. The students would create a tile using clay in square form depending on the teachers measurement could be 4 by 4 or 5 by 5 inches.The tile would have to include some texture, adding and eliminating parts of the clay. After they were done creating their tile they would paint it using certain amount of colors or more. An extension activity for this for kids to create a box by measuring out all the sides of their box and having to hook them together. The box could be container to hold items or a jewelry box.

This project was created a 1st grade learning environment. The project was to teach them how to paint with warm colors, cool colors and how to fix paint. They based off the picture of a famous artist  Kandinsky an Russian painter. For this project we had to create 4 fall leaves and paint them different colors to make sure we didn't use all the same type of colors in each square. Each square needed a warm and cool color but a few of our colors needed to be mixed. An extension activity i would have them do is based of Andy Warhol and have them draw and paint the same object in four different ways.

This art integration project with science was for a 5th grade classroom. The idea of project was to show kids why they need to recyle to save our earth and animals in the sea. They create a projected that would re use old pop cans and create a fish with at least 3 colors and two patterns. An extension acitivity for a middle school age groups is to cut the cans a part and create a Mosaic out of the pecies.

They choose to create an art project based of the Navjo Culture in a fifth grade classroom.For this lesson we had to draw a pot with a pattern and three different types of cactus inside our pot. After we finished drawing and outlying with a sharpie we would paint with warm and cool colors. An extension activity i would have them find a place that makes them feel relaxed and draw what they see and use texture to give their drawings life.

This project was based off the book "The Dot" by Peter Renolds this book explained how one person art can be master piece and anything can be art with encouragement. We created a bunch of dot projects with paper and coffee filter. An extension activity could be letting them use splatter paint and create any type of art work based of what they see in their splatter paint by adding lines to connect them or color in.

For this art project you could use it in a 3rd of 5th grade art class. The students would learn about Vincent van Gogh and would create their own piece based off his painting Starry night. The students would put facts based off what they learn and have to include colors, silhouettes and swirls. An extension activity you could do with this is have the students create a story about their painting and based off one his paintings. This would give life to his art and their own in a unique way.

This was paper art project for a 2nd grade class. The students would have to create a mosaic out of tiny pieces of shapes of paper. The background paper would be used for silhouette that could have mosaic pieces put on it or not. An extensive activity you could have the students could have the children find a quote and use the letters as a silhouette place little papers around the back to make it pop.

This totem pole 3D craft was based off the native Americans culture in a history class. The students would create their animal into a totem pole and it would have to include 2D and 3D objects to make it stand out. An extension activity you could use this for a FACS class and have the class a 3D/ 2D design based on their dream room.

This project was created for a fourth grade art classroom. Children would learn how to create a project  based off Printmaking. The children would create a landscape with pencil and then trace it on to a Styrofoam paper with a pen and then go over the indents made on the Styrofoam with a pen. After you would cover it with the ink and the paint wouldn't go into the pen marks. Once its fully covered you would put it on your other white sheet and lay pressure with rolling instrument to make sure all the ink gets on the page. An extension activity you could do this is with calligraphy. You could have kids write their signature in cursive or another language and create a stamp they can sign at the end of their letters.

This project my partner and i designed for a 5th grade classroom. We decided to choose weaving for our teaching presentation. The students would be able to create a weaving with a ABA pattern or ABCA Pattern with a minimum of two colors. They would base their weaving of the story gathering blue. The weaving were on a 5 by 5 slate and would create a coaster. An extention activity you could have the children do is create an math equation based on the time and amount of yarn used to create on a bigger scale or multiple people doing the project.

This project was designed for a 2nd grader class where they would learn how to integrate a line art project with crayons. The students would trace their hand and design their mitten using different lines. They then would paint a certain type of paint onto cardboard and let dry. After this they would trace their mitten with the scratch stick and fix any lines to show more color.  An extension activity i would do for scratch art is to create patterns and shape instead of just lines to go with other culture lessons.
