What’s Included In My Art History Project Bundle
Can I be honest with you? Art history can sometimes be boring for kids. There, I said it. Teaching about artists and cultures doesnāt have to be a snoozer, though!
Iāve designed 3 different ways for students to attempt any of these Van Gogh projects. All will engage kids to create! Choose which way works best for your classes:
- Roll a dice games to add randomness to your studentās artwork
- āYou Pickā art worksheets for kids to choose their own elements
- Digital spinner wheels, so kids can randomly pick elements 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 worksheets, for kids who want to sketch out their ideas
- Artist biographies leveled for both elementary and middle school students accordingly, so you donāt need to research
- āBig Ideasā reflection worksheets where students write about their art process
- Art rubrics, self-assessment tools to get students thinking about things like craftsmanship and art project goals
- āI CANā Statements aligned to the Studio Habits of Mind to use during instruction or post on your bulletin board
- Art exit tickets with quick, thought-provoking prompts
- Art history coloring page to keep kids inspired by these modern artists outside of the art room

These dice roll things are my go to with subs ALWAYS!! Also, add a cheap die to your art repertoire, and each child has his/her own guided and interactive ‘game.’ Even the kids who are overly perfectionist or disinterested in art LOVED this. Plus, the results were art show worthy.

This resource is awesome! It was super easy to follow, and engaging. My kids (10) and I were able to complete the Starry Night one in 2 days. The result was beautiful and the kids were proud of their work.

These are great sub plans yes, but they are also fun engaging lessons for your regular class. We’ll be studying Van Gogh soon and this will be a nice introductory lesson.

Seeing the example was helpful with this assignment. My students enjoyed rolling the dice and selecting, although some of them might’ve re-rolled until they got what they wanted.
