I love art! How can you add more art to your school program. One easy way is to make art projects as presents. Frame the piece as a gift. Want ideas? Try Dick Blick’s Free Lessons, such as The Paper Square Challenge or Bling Bling Mosaics. Look at these Free Online Art Learning Resources from the National Gallery of Art. I taught at a tiny Christian school. The Art teacher taught all twelve grades. She picked a different artist as the theme for all students each week. For example, one week the kids all tried to mimic Jackson Pollack. Another week, she taped paper under the table; the kids painted on their backs like Michael Angelo. I thought this approach was genius. It accommodated all of the kids, who approached the lessons with different levels of maturity. Hey! The kids are supplying birthday and Christmas presents for the entire family!
