Okay, listen, I get it. We’re still in December and you may not want to be thinking about what’s gonna go down in your art room next week (or this week? Do you return to school on Friday?). Regardless, I thought I’d help you out by offering some of my favorite EASY and engaging lessons that will allow you to ease your way back to the art room. Most of these lessons have a video so you can play that for your students while you grab your coffee and try to remember what day it is.<\/span><\/p>\n

Let’s start here! This lesson is ALWAYS a hit and, believe it or not, I do it with kindergarten. HOWEVER…when I return to school after a\u00a0 long break, the last thing I wanna do is prep like mad for 5 different grade levels. It stresses me out and, because our students our little mirrors who reflect us, it stresses the kids out. SO! I often do this lesson with EVERYBODY, kindergarten through 4th. Does it make for a lotta messy paint trays, paintbrush washing and overflowing drying racks? YES. But does it also make for a gorgeous display of hearts created by the whole school that is ready to be hung BEFORE Valentine’s Day (always the goal, right?!). Yes! So, let’s go. Full lesson here.<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n
