My daughter’s school is having an art day next week and since I am a local artist I volunteered to teach a class. Wish me luck—it is for first and second graders all day. LOL
I found this amazing blog filled with art lessons for primary age school children and I borrowed a lesson from her.
I am going to have them create a self portrait:
either based on Modigliana
or just a wild crazy one
Check out the blog and see if you like any of the varied lessons: Art Projects for Kids
She sells templates for kids to create wall murals of masterpieces, like Starry Night. I used that lesson with some 5th graders one time…It was fun. 🙂


This is awesome! Thanks for sharing. I will have to look through this with K tomorrow! =D
Fun! I am sure you'll be great at it and have a blast. The kids will love you. Good luck!
I think they will love it! Kid think art is fun! Take many pictures and show us afterwards,,,
