Design Your Own Middle School Art Worksheets
Design Your Own art worksheets make for perfect middle school sub plans because they’re as simple as print, design, and color! That’s right. These no prep activities make it easy to leave a substitute teacher an art project they don’t need to teach.
With 20 pages of engaging worksheets, your sub will be able to keep middle school kids fully immersed in their artwork.
No more worrying about what you’ll find when you come back from your pro-dev, personal, or sick day off. Your substitute only needs to pass out the art worksheets and coloring materials.
My students love these design your own art projects because it gives them the structure they need, but the creative freedom to explore their own ideas. It’s an opportunity for them to really think outside the box.
Moreover, no two drawings will turn out the same! And, I love them because they show off their problem-solving skills and divergent thinking abilities.

This resource is a fantastic addition to any Grade 6 classroom aligned with the Ontario curriculum. The expectations are clearly addressed, and the activities are engaging, well-structured, and easy for students to follow independently or in groups. I especially appreciate how the content supports critical thinking and allows for differentiation to meet diverse learning needs. The layout is clean and teacher-friendly, making it simple to implement with minimal prep time. ItÕs evident that a lot of thought went into aligning the material with curriculum goals while still keeping students interested and motivated.
Perfect lesson for early finishers. They enjoyed it. I went along well with the graphic design unit we were on.
These Design Your Own Middle School Art Worksheets & Art Sub Plans are fantastic! The hoodie and food truck designs were a huge hit with my students, they loved having the freedom to be creative while still following a clear structure. The activities are engaging, easy to understand, and perfect for a range of skill levels. Even my more reluctant students were excited to participate and share their designs. I also appreciate how low-prep and organized everything is, which makes it ideal for sub plans or quick, meaningful art lessons. This resource strikes a great balance between creativity and structure. Highly recommend for any middle school classroom!
I used this colouring activity with my grade 1/2 class and they LOVED it! It really brought out their creative side!
This was an excellent resource to leave for a sub. It was easy to grade and I love that they had choices.
