This year I began my 21st year teaching and feel as much passion for my craft as I did my first year. I have taught K-12 art in a variety of schools in the state of Kansas. I am currently an elementary art instructor in a public school.
Year after year I have parents tell me that this project is one that they have saved and display every fall in their homes. This slideshow has everything you will need to recreate this adorable art project. The slideshow includes key vocab, standards, video on how to draw a pumpkin, and step by step instructions with pictures on how to recreate the project. Even non art majors will be able to affectively guide their students through this project!
This Google slideshow features an in depth study of Russian artist Wassily Kandinsky and a corresponding art lesson. In this slideshow you will find a history of the artist, and a short kid friendly video, standards and objectives, project guide and example, and a Ted Talk about synesthia.
Explore the wonderful world of glass blowing! This bundle includes a Dale Chihuly Google Slides presentation and a crossword puzzle that can be used in conjunction with the slideshow. The puzzle includes an answer key. Your students will be fully engaged and loving this exploration of one of the most famous American glass blowers.
This twenty-six slide presentation covers the life and artwork of famous glass artist Dale Chihuly. The Google slideshow includes a brief biography, key characteristics of his artwork, many examples of his work, links to videos on his website. This slideshow would be a great introduction to the beautiful work of Dale Chihuly.
