I have two new products in my shop I’d like to tell you about.  First is a Henri Matisse PowerPoint that is appropriate for students in grades K-2.  (Since K has less of an attention span, I would not show the PowerPoint in its entirety, but rather show and read parts of it.)

An image featuring Henri Matisse's colorful artworks, including vibrant leaf patterns and a musician scene.

The next is a package of 6 Fabulous Art Projects to start the year off right.  Yes, I know it’s the middle of the school year now, but several of these art lessons are wonderful to use at any time of the year.  Here’s the details:

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Are you looking for some art projects to start your year off right? Are you just looking for a few fresh ideas to use at any time? I used these lessons as the first projects of the school year, as they are great for getting to know the members of the class and encouraging them with successful experiences right away. However, I really think you could use them at any time!

Banner with the text "6 Fabulous Art Projects for a Creative Start to School" and three children's art pieces displayed.
This packet contains:

6 Art Lessons
26 Pages of instructions, pictures and tips
3 Student Handouts
2 Templates

The projects included are:

1. I Am A Star: best for grades K-2. (telling about yourself, writing your name and basic fine motor skills)– includes star template

2. Monsters Love School: grades K-4 (Back to School theme, watercolor resist, scribbling with crayons, and creativity)– includes handout of monster ideas

3. 10 Object Drawing (About Yourself): grade 4-6 (identity, drawing, fulfilling a challenge within constraints)– includes handout for students to follow the prompts

4. Identity Dolls: grades 3-5 (fine motor skills, mixed media collage, personal identity and expression)– includes body template

5. Painted Patterns Class Banner: grades 1-3 (types of lines, creating a collaborative artwork, how to use a paintbrush, starting with watercolor paints)

6. Mini-Masterpieces: grades 3-6 (personality and interests, creating art on a miniature scale, choice of art media) — includes handout of prompts

Other popular products from my shop are the Art Discussion Signs for Bulletin Boards

Colorful art discussion signs with questions about art are arranged around a central sign that says "Let's Talk About ART." These engaging prompts make great additions to bulletin boards in classrooms or community spaces.

And the Sketchbook Prompts series are a favorite!

Sketchbook featuring "Art History Sketchbook Prompts #3" with famous artworks and descriptions on adjacent pages.
