Beach Ball Drawing Game
Need no prep, end of the year activities for art? Imagine these beach ball drawing 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 end of the year activities using only markers. Yes, you can watercolor paint with markers! This summer art project includes a beach ball 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 beach ball project helps. Finally keep all kids engaged!

My kids absolutely LOVED this activity! We did it the last week of school, and they had a blast decorating their beach ball.
I thought this was a great resource to get ready for the summer. I love that students get to play with patterns and that pattern ideas are included.
I’ve used this resource for a fun art activity without the writing component for End of the Year theme days with different classes, and they really enjoyed it. I’ll be using it this year with the writing piece with my own class to keep encouraging opinion writing in these last days of school.
My students loved this resource and were so creative with it!
We used this as an end of year art project reward. They really enjoyed drawing different patterns in each section of the picture.
