Need no prep, fun summer art activities? Imagine these ice cream art 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.Ā
A fun roll a dice game, āyou pickā worksheet, and digital spinners helps kids choose patterns. Moreover, boost their confidence and creativity.Ā
And, itāll help cash-strapped teachers like you plan ice cream projects using only markers. Yes, you can watercolor paint with markers! This summer art activity includes an ice cream cone template for easy drawing.Ā
