What educators are saying

My students had so much fun creating their very own sun! There were many options to pick from so that I could customize how we completed the lesson. Super easy and fun for the class to do!
This is a great end of the school year activity. They looked amazing on the bulletin board. My students had a great time making them.

Description

Need no prep, fun summer art activities for elementary? Imagine these sun art projects in your hallway with a summer writing prompt. The step by step drawing tutorial and PowerPoint also makes perfect emergency art sub plans for elementary art and general ed teachers.

A fun roll a dice game, ‘you pick’ worksheet, and digital spinners helps kids choose patterns. Moreover, boost their confidence and creativity.

And, it’ll help cash-strapped teachers like you plan summer themed art projects using only markers. Yes, you can watercolor paint with markers! This sunshine art project includes a sun template for easy drawing.

Can I tell you a secret? It’s hard to get kids writing in ELA. When they’re not invested in it, they can’t connect with what they’re writing about. Mic drop!

Incorporating creative art lessons like this sun art activity helps. Finally keep all kids engaged!

WHAT'S INCLUDED

I’ve designed 3 different ways for students to attempt this summer art project. All will motivate kids to create! Choose which way works best for your classes:

  • Roll a dice game to add randomness to your student’s artwork
  • “You Pick” art worksheet for kids to choose their own patterns
  • Digital spinner wheels, so kids can randomly pick patterns and you can integrate technology
  • Printable dice template in case you have no dice
  • Step-by-step picture directions to guide students through the art process
  • Sun template which kids can draw directly on it or transfer it to heavy drawing paper
  • Drawing practice worksheet, so kids can practice drawing patterns
  • 2 Writing prompts, so you can tie this drawing project to literacy
  • 2 Sunshine Coloring pages that you can use for absent students or hand out as a classroom prize
  • Helpful Tips & Tricks handout with teacher directions to help guide the lesson

HOW TO USE MY SUMMER ART ACTIVITY FOR ELEMENTARY

WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great for decorating our bulletin board showcasing our summer plans! Thank you!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I was a prep teacher last term and this was a wonderful activity to do across grade levels. All students were engaged and they loved how each came out different.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is such a cute art activity to do with students toward the end of the year! They loved being able to customize their sun with whatever pattern they like. It was also very easy to follow with the accompanying PowerPoint. A great summer activity to do with the students toward the end of the school year!
