Fernando Llort Art Project

Fernando Llort Art Project

Ready to liven up elementary art with a fun Fernando Llort art project for Hispanic Heritage Month? My folk art history lesson will boost confidence and creativity. Kids will connect with Fernando Llort’s story and style. Moreover, they’ll enjoy playing a roll and draw game to paint their own bird!

And, it’ll help time-starved teachers like you create art lesson plans for elementary kids based on El Salvadorian artist, Fernando Llort.

During this art project for Hispanic Heritage Month, your class will learn how he began a folk art movement in El Salvador to help villagers earn money. Use it to discuss Mayan art, handicrafts, and symbolism. Students will paint a folk art bird using the step-by-step guide and PowerPoint.

Plan lessons for elementary kids about contemporary artists in a way that excites them. Finally feel confident in your art curriculum and be organized and prepared to teach art!

What’s Included in My Fernando Llort Art Project

Can I be honest with you? Art history can sometimes be boring. There, I said it. Teaching about artists and cultures doesn’t have to be a snoozer, though!

I’ve designed 3 different ways for students to attempt this drawing and painting project based on Fernando Llort. All will engage kids to create! Choose which way works best for your classes:

• Roll a dice game to add randomness to your student’s artwork
• “You Pick” idea worksheet for kids to choose their own patterns
• Digital spinner wheels, so kids can randomly pick symbols and designs and you can integrate technology in the art room
• Printable dice template in case you have no dice
• Step-by-step picture directions to guide students through the art process
• Drawing practice worksheet, for kids who want to sketch out their ideas
• How to a Bird worksheet, with style variations for kids to choose from
• Fernando Llort artist biography about the life and work of this El Salvador-born Hispanic artist and musician, so you don’t need to research
• “Big Ideas” reflection worksheet where students write about their art process
• Self-assessment worksheet so kids can think about how they performed during the project
• Art grading rubric which assesses expectations, craftsmanship, work habits, creativity, and clean-up
• 8 “I CAN” Statements aligned to the Studio Habits of Mind to use during instruction or post on your bulletin board
• 4 Art exit tickets with quick, thought-provoking prompts
• Art history coloring page to keep kids inspired by Fernando Llort’s bird designs outside of the art room

Ways to Use This Elementary Art Project During Hispanic Heritage Month
