Welcome to Lines, Dots, and Doodles. This is the place for students, parents, and teachers to find out what has been going on in my art class. I have included pictures of my student's artwork and basic explanations of the projects. I hope when you leave this blog, you feel inspired to create.

First Week Project

Last week was the first week of school, so I needed a simple easy lesson.  I found this wonderful lesson on Pinterest.  Unfortunately, I am unsure what blog or website it originally came from because it was pinned incorrectly. If this is your lesson, please let me know so I can give you proper credit.

For this lesson, I had each student create one 5 inch by 5 inch circle design.  The circles were simply cut out of construction paper, and glued to their square piece.  After the students created their designs, I hung them on the wall in the art room.  It certainly has brightened up my room!

    Congrats on the weddeing Ms. B! I'm the artist who created the volcano you used a an older post. I'm always surprised to see people looking at my blog via your blog. You have a great following, and such a creative teacher!

    Here's a self-portrait project I did with my 5 and 8 year old grandchildren. You could use a window rather than a light box. It was a lot of fun. http://margaretgodfreyart.blogspot.com/2013/06/an-art-project-good-for-ages-5-to-64.html

    Magaret, I am so glad you posted. I just love how the blogging world helps us meet interesting artists and share ideas. I absolutely love your volcano art.

    Also, I love the self portraits you did with your grandchildren. I may have to find a way to do something similar in my classroom.
