Digital New Years Hat Art Project
My no prep, digital art project for elementary kids to build a New Year’s party hat on Google Slides™ is easy and engaging. Students will practice technology skills using my digital New Years resource and step by step art lesson. Then, pick a writing prompt to draft a creative story about their New Years hat project.
Need fun, fast finisher activities for elementary? Digital art projects are paperless, take up no space, and don’t use art materials. Simply assign the party hat activity using your LMS, and stop worrying about early finishers!
