Halloween Art Projects for Elementary Students - Drawing
Symmetry drawing is a great sub plan and a nice way to teach both math and art. Students can learn about realistic drawing and practice drawing skills by using grid squares to help them count and measure to draw the symmetrical half.
Symmetry drawing can become a daily sketchbook practice to help students refine and practice drawing skills.
You can see the example below done by a grade 5 student -their drawing is on the right.
You can also try my fall/Halloween symmetry drawing for primary grades in grade 2-4.
Halloween art projects for elementary students - Colouring
Colouring is a great activity for students who have finished their work early or if you are having a Halloween party in class. Students can colour with markers, crayons or pencil crayons! You could even hold a colouring contest!
