1st Grade Andy Warhol Soup Cans

I have been doing this project for years.  It is a great 1-3 week project and there are many different ways I have done it.  This year I went with paint.  It was one white 12"x18" paper that we folded in half and painted the part red, and we also paint a littler piece of paper yellow.  If we didnt have snowday I would have also like to painted gray. I like to personalized the cans by using thier last names.  I go on Word and print all thier name in Font that is close to the Campbells logo.  Then I draw a line around the name so the students know where to cut it out.  When I do this project I dont tell them what we are making, but I give them clues.  They have alot of fun with it.

My Work

I was cleaning out my desk the other day, and came across my photo cd with my work on it.  I thought you all might like to see what I use to make.

4th Grade Self Portrait in Space

I saw this project on a artolazzi.blogspot.com.  Self Portrait in Space the final frontier this is so much fun to do. It was a total different way to do self portraits.  My students really enjoyed doing them as well.

First I talked about how to draw the face right on a 9"x12" white paper. After we did this we painted them in.
Next they drew their space suits on a 18"x24" white paper.  I show them pictures on real space suits. After that we cut a whole out for thier face.  I know the place where I saw this they laminate the faces so it would look shiny. 

Back at it.....

Well I hope everyone enjoy their time off... Well back to work on Monday... going to be working on some new stuff. 

Like Missouri State Soda Cans:  Student will have to design the State Soda Can using the state symbols.  I will get pictures as soon as I can. 

Also just got done working on "Why the chicken cross the road?"

Not sure what else I will be doing in Art.

In Tech Class we will be working on Google Sketchup finding the area of shapes, and building something.  ex. house, building.  Going to get the students a max sq. footage to work with.  should be fun.  Will let you know more later on this as well...
