Art Books

The pre-kindergarten program at my school attends each of the resource classes (art, music, PE and library) on a rotating schedule, just like the other grade levels.  For art, I have developed a year long project of a "Pre-School Art Book".  I originally got the idea for this book from KinderArt.com  Each student completed their own art book throughout the school year.  Since pre-school only meets for 20 minuets at a time, some of the pages took multiple class sessions to complete.  In May, I had the pages bound and each student received their own book of artwork.  The students loved seeing all their artwork together, and parents loved to see the progress students made throughout the year!

We talked about transportation & how students get to school.  Some road the bus, some walked and some were car riders.

Students learned about different types of lines:


Students learned to make a pattern (If I did this project again, I would limit it to 2 colors- an A/B pattern)
