The Great Wave off Kanagawa Collaboration Poster Great Art History Project
- PDF
What educators are saying
Description
Make art history come to life in your classroom! This art activity is intended to complement/supplement any lessons on Hokusai and/or his famous artwork, The Great Wave off Kanagawa.
This collaborative poster is the perfect way to start a unit or cap one off. It is an engaging and entertaining way for students to work together to create a large poster of this famous artwork.
The final poster makes a great classroom focal point and a lasting example of collaboration for your students.
The final poster is great for:
- Art shows
- An auditorium
- A hallway
- Your classroom bulletin board
There are two options so you can choose what works best for you and your students – making it great for any age. Both options are very easy. Each student is given one page of the famous masterpiece to color according to the instructions. Once all sheets are colored and cut out, they are then assembled to reveal a large collaboration mosaic/poster/mural of The Great Wave off Kanagawa.
Poster #1 - The colors have been assigned. Students will follow the colors assigned using a color key on each page.
Poster #2 - The colors have NOT been assigned. Let your students color the poster whatever colors they want (or that you assign).
Poster Details
- There are 30 pieces.
- Each piece fits on a regular 8.5" x 11" piece of paper.
- The final poster is approx. 27" x 33" depending on your printer settings.
- You will need crayons, markers, or colored pencils in blue, light blue, brown, orange, and pink.
Bonus Coloring Page:
Group collaboration posters are a lot of fun and leave a lasting impression. However, students don’t get to walk away with anything tangible to show their families. So, I have included a bonus one-page coloring page for your students to color and take home. This is also very useful for early finishers.
