Presidents Day Hat Game

Need no prep, President’s Day Hat art projects? Imagine these Uncle Sam top hat drawings in your hallway with a 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. And, boost their confidence and creativity. 

And, it’ll help cash-strapped teachers like you plan President’s Day art lessons using only markers. Yes, you can watercolor paint with markers! This art project for President’s Day includes an top hat 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 President’s Day  activities like this patriotic hat helps. Finally keep all kids engaged!
