Troy Middle School - 7th Grade Art
United States
Приєднався 24 січ 2013
Welcome to my channel everyone!
I am the 7th Grade Art teacher at Troy Middle School located in Plainfield, Illinois and started this channel to support and provide resources for my current middle school Art students. It is referenced daily by them and most of the projects you see shared here have additional supplemental materials such as written Google Slide directions or other assignments that are issued to students as well. I am happy to share these resources with anyone - just ask!
I recently started another channel where I'm working specifically on creating all sorts of content for middle school Art students. This channel features projects and skills that we do not have time to complete in my current classroom or go beyond what we cover in our current curriculum. Link is below if you'd like to follow along on my journey there.

The Rubber Duck Challenge
This is a quick and simple lesson I use when I am out of the building and there is a substitute teacher in my room. My classes are quite short this year (38 minutes) so it is perfect for the brief time period students are in my class. Supplies needed include printed Duck templates, assorted colored markers (or any other coloring supplies) and a pencil. Once finished, students upload to Artsonia to earn credit for the class period.
The template was created by searching "Duck outline" in Google and copy/pasting/editing a document to print out for classroom use.

Painting Colorful Swatches
Переглядів 212Рік тому
Last rotation my students requested a full video demonstration on this portion of the Color Wheel Painting project. Previously they just had access to a shortened version. Using primary colored paints, students create 12 swatches of color to be used in a collage later on. I precut the paper and have early finishers help pre-draw all the lines on the paper so students have paper ready to go when...
How To Create A Micrography Drawing

This is a project I did with my 7th grade Art Club students while meeting virtually during what I call the "COVID years." Using blank paper, pencils/erasers, assorted fine-point pens, and their student devices, the kids came up with an original source image and set of words to feature in their micrography drawings. Although this project is done in assorted colors, it could easily be done in a m...
