3rd Grade Visual Arts Lesson

Introducing a dynamic blend of creativity and strategy with our Color theory | Elementary art sub plans

Elevate Color Theory:

Step into a world where art meets gaming excitement! Our Colorful Tetris Color theory | Elementary art sub plans is a lifesaver for art teachers facing unexpected absences. With its easy-to-follow NO PREP instructions and minimal materials required, substitute teachers can effortlessly guide students through this engaging activity, ensuring that learning never skips a beat. You will also teach primary and secondary colors, it can also be used to review color theory or to check students' knowledge.

Foster Collaboration and Critical Thinking:

As students collaborate to solve Tetris-inspired challenges, they develop essential teamwork and critical thinking skills. Through lively discussions and creative problem-solving, they learn to communicate effectively and support each other's artistic endeavors.

It is a good art game to use during the first and last week of school as an art sub-plan and an early finisher activity.

There are two ways to play it: cooperatively or competitively. I confess that I prefer cooperatively.

My students were so excited that some did it a few times until they got the gold medal (rulers on how to play are on the teachers' guide)

Teach or review primary and secondary colors with this student-tested game.

This resource includes:

- Teacher’s guide or art sub plans

- PowerPoint presentation

- 2 options on how to play the game

- gold, silver, and bronze medals

- How to play video

Need an awesome Art Unit? I have just the thing for you! This creative Fish Aquarium Scene was designed to be printed and displayed as examples while you teach. Use this PDF file to display these beautiful images one-by-one on a large screen. For this assignment, I made 4 unique pre-cut fish aquarium stencils that students could choose from and trace on large 18 x 24-inch paper. Students were asked to brainstorm ideas for the background, and what the Fish Aquarium could be sitting on. Students were given lots of fish/aquarium life photos as a resource to draw from. I hope you and your kiddos love this! Enjoy.
