7th Grade Visual Arts Activities

I am so proud of this art portfolio cover, for years I left for the last minute to do my art portfolio covers, but since I created these covers it made my life easier. I normally choose one design for each grade and Voalá. Parents like to see a beautiful cover on the portfolios.

Students may color with a variety of supplies and can add their touch to it! Or you may choose to incorporate the design process into a lesson plan. When students are done, the completed artwork can be affixed to the face of a large folder or other type of portfolio material.

These creative Art name tags were designed to be printed, cut apart, and attached to your student’s amazing artworks. These name tags have a line designated for the student’s name, type of artwork it is, and grade level of the student. Using these name tags makes it easy for handing back artworks to students after the art is displayed in an art gallery, art museum, and/or art show. As an elementary art teacher, I enjoy different color name tags for different grade levels, so I have created 6 unique color palettes per grades K-5th grade. I hope this helps! Enjoy.

Pablo Picasso was among the most impactful artists of the 20th century. He is recognized for co-founding the Cubist movement, creating constructed sculpture, co-inventing collage, and for the diverse range of styles that he contributed to and examined.

For approximately 80 of his 91 years, Picasso dedicated himself to creating art that played a crucial role in the overall progress of modern art during the 20th century, especially through the creation of Cubism (alongside artist Georges Braque) around 1907.

Picasso is often regarded as THE genius of the twentieth century. Possibly more than any other artist, he transformed the course of art, initiating the modernist movement. He was an innovator of Cubism, subsequently of collage art, and eventually neo-classicism.

This lesson plan centers around the artwork of Pablo Picasso. Numerous activities are provided, arranged in two worksheets. Their answers are provided in the end. Six of his most famous works are also included.

I use this as an introduction activity for my middle school A/V Broadcasting class. I present a really quick overview of film and then they pick a topic with a partner. We take 2-3 days to research and build our presentations and then we take 2-3 days to present our findings. It's a quick introduction to the different periods of film, plus it allows me to see/hear all of my students before we start making videos.

I've included my rubric, which can be easily added into your LMS platform.

Linear Relationships Art #1 - Graphing Straight Lines - PBL, Project Based Learning

This math art project embodies the principles of project-based learning, merging mathematics with artistic expression to engage students in a multifaceted educational experience. Students will graph 18 linear equations, meticulously tracing each line then creating intricate oblong shapes within spaces created by the lines.

The project culminates in a vibrant display of color as students fill in each unique shape, applying their understanding of mathematical concepts through a creative lens. This approach not only reinforces skills in graphing and geometry but also encourages artistic creativity and attention to detail. Ideal for fostering a deeper appreciation for the intersection of math and art, this project makes learning both interactive and visually compelling.

2 Versions Included

This math art project comes in two versions:

1. Equations are provided - this allows students to begin graph pre-determined equations, all projects will have the same outline. This will still allow for student artistic expression within their shape creation and color choices.

2. The second version is where students craft their own, adhering to specific criteria. The latter challenges gifted and talented learners, promoting higher-order thinking as they develop equations. This self-generated approach deepens understanding, fostering analytical skills and creative problem-solving in a mathematically artistic context.

Looking for more math and art? Try one of these!
