Matisse Printmaking using Values

Matisse can be a a fun artist for students to discover. He uses such bright colors and is great at painting his surroundings. I did not create this lesson, but I assume that it was based on Matisse. I also assume that the teacher taught the students how light is cast to create shadows. I notice that the plants in both of the vases are created using printmaking and I wonder if the students created eraser stamps for their prints. The grapes, vases, coffee cups, and such are all cut out of paper, so I wonder if the teacher discussed Matisse's collage phase as well. The texture created by crayon rubbings suggests a look of different paper as well.

Snakes- Practicing Line

In this project, I believe the teacher had the students develop pattern and line through their skin designs on the snakes. Perhaps they studied venomous snakes and some of their bright colors. Here are two student examples.

Artist Statements in Elementary

Ever attempt to make your students write artist statements?  I did! It was both rewarding and great for my English Language Learners and pretty much every student! As you know, we need more writing in the school setting! If you are going to start artist statements, I highly suggest an "Art Word Wall" this will allow you to create a reference for students as they write, rather than coming up to you while you are working with the late finishers. As the year progresses, add more and more words to the word wall. Be sure to point them out to your students as you introduce the vocabulary of the lesson. Students who love to be helpers and leaders will be able to point out words to the other students! My Art Word Wall was created with poster board, before and sometimes during a lesson, I used index cards to write the vocabulary word and a visual for my students. Once the word was full, I laminated it to preserve it for next year! If you have a word wall in your room, post it be...

Using Artsonia in the Classroom

If you are an Art teacher, you know that technology is tough to get for our rooms! In the past, I would use my old iPhone and/or Nook to allow the students to photograph their artwork. We use a website called Artsonia.com to upload student work which allows parents and family members to subscribe! If you haven't heard of Artsonia and are in TK-12 education, you MUST check it out! They even set up their site for publishing student work on merchandise of all kinds. Also, something like 20% of the profit on your classroom merchandise goes back to your room! It's awesome! Below is a poster that I used when I taught K-5. After each project, student's wrote artist statements and then used the poster to upload their work to Artsonia. I am sure this poster is a bit out of date, however, it could help you create a center like this for your room! Students use this poster to help guide through the uploading process! A fun poster in the classroom to remind students what ...
