Where Did Vincent Van Gogh Go the Style of Art Where Did Vincent Van Gogh Go to School

Permit's Make a Black Light Disco Ball!

Our school-wide fine art prove is coming up and our theme is 1980's! And, I know what you're thinking: aren't disco balls more of a 1970's thing? Well, I suppose although I practise call up them in the skating rinks growing up and loving them. So I idea my 4th graders would savor creating them as their contribution to our Glow Gallery!

The supplies we used are the following:

* Cardboard pizza circle, constitute at eatery supply stores

* Permanent markers

* Silver paint

* Neon tempera cakes

This is a quick lesson, perfect for my xxx infinitesimal art classes. Nosotros spent the commencement course drawing and tracing with a sharpie with just a few who started painting. Next time, we'll wrap these upwards and hang them from the ceiling in the glow gallery. Hither'due south the video you are welcome to use in your fine art teacherin' world:

Dirt Mugs for Kids!

Hi, friends! My students are wrapping upwardly one of the clay projects they created and I thought I'd share. Terminal year, my get-go through fourth created clay mugs and it was easily everyone'southward favorite clay project. When I shared that nosotros were working with clay again, a few weeks agone, their first question was "are we making mugs again?!" I had already planned on information technology...so they were excited to hear the answer. Once mugs are complete, we celebrate by drinking hot chocolate out of them...so it'southward a whole lot of fun.

This twelvemonth, I created a video to share with them. Because I accept 30 infinitesimal art classes, I only showed the compression pot portion and a bit of coil making for the kickoff class. The second grade, we did a brief coil making reminder and then watched the portion virtually creating a handle. The video helped them trouble shoot and go their mugs completed in merely two 30 minute classes!

This week, we started glazing! They were told they could apply any two colors of coat, one for the inside and ane for the outside. They were to do at least iii coats of their called colors and non to coat the lesser. One time complete, they could bring together me at the splatter glaze station!

When my students were finished glazing, they could help a friend or work on the large banners I created to denote our upcoming art show!

We used Prang's Inventiveness Street Tempera Sticks to color these with.

The glaze we used are from 2 companies and I like them both: Mayco'due south Stroke and Coat and Amaco'south Teacher's Palette. Both are food safe and fire to cone 06.

When introducing clay to your students, you might discover this video fun to share:

Vincent van Gogh Inspired Buttons and Earrings!

Hullo! I scored this amazing sweater recently and while I absolutely loved information technology, I hated the obnoxious plastic white buttons that were on the sweater. They just stuck out like a sore thumb! So I picked upward some polymer clay at the arts and crafts shop with the idea to create my own. Normally, I buy the 'proper name make' polymer dirt merely this fourth dimension, I was feeling cheap and decided to give the house brand a try. Information technology was one-half the toll and I have to say...despite the fact that the yellow clay stained my easily a pinch, it worked dandy! I'yard used to stained easily and so, no big deal!

I went virtually creating these manufacturing plant style and it went pretty quickly. I made a video to share the process in case you need some van Gogh bling in your life. Like, duh. Of grade you do.

So easy, right?

Once consummate, I merely stitched these onto my sweater and added some bound rings and a French hook to the earrings and I was all ready in my new upgraded van Gogh sweater!

Not only that but this craft was simply the creativity thirst quencher I needed this weekend. Thank you for letting me share, y'all!

Jen Stark Inspired Hearts for Valentine'southward Twenty-four hour period!

Need a fast and fun lesson for Valentine's Day (or someday, really) inspired past the artist Jen Stark? I created this one for my students and they started information technology last week. Some are working Big on 12" X 18" paper while others are using it equally an early finisher project and worked on newspaper one-half the size. I am also giving my students the pick of using black and white, all warm or all cool colors (equally seen on the left).

ONE Alter I'G MAKING: for my students using black and white, I'm going to have them pigment the entire background white and so add the blackness paint stripes once that dries.

Since my art classes are thirty minutes long, we've been doing the drips in one art class, painting in the side by side and wrapping it upwardly and adding the puffy paint on the final grade.

If you are interested, here's the video!

Have fun!
