Hello

I hope that you find inspiration from my page. Feel free to takes snippets and change any steps to suit your needs, I'd love to hear how you might change the activities, adding, removing or changing steps for whatever reason.  Best of luck with all your art making, you make this world a better place!!

Crepe paper fish

Image
Excellent activity for dexterity skills Step 1: Draw fish out on card with marker Step 2: Ball up crepe paper (good for dexterity skills)  Step 3: Glue to fish   In this case one person did not have the ability to ball up the crepe paper so the alternative was to stick the crepe paper on flat. I framed these, I love them so much and everybody enjoyed the process immensely.

Dot art - Initial

Step 1: Prep is simply taping the initial of the pupil to white card. Step 2: Dot the entire page with colours. Step 3: Once dry remove the letter to reveal the initial in the negative space.

Surreal faces

Image
Step 1: Draw and cut out the shapes of faces in thick black marker Step 2: (Optional) If you think students won't be able to identify lips, nose, eye shapes an option is to number all the eyes 1. all the noses 2. etc. Step 3: Mix up all of the pieces, allow pupils to chose their own pieces to make face and design as they wish.  Step 4: Glue down all pieces once coloured and sellotape piece of string on the back to be hung up.  Tada!!
