This snowman was created by a younger student.

Students used white chalk to draw the winter pictures. They placed a piece of paper cut into an oval over top of a piece of black paper. They then colored using the chalk on the edges of the page. The oval paper in the center prevented students from coloring this portion of the page. They removed the oval paper and then drew winter-themed pictures in the center of the page such as trees, snowmen, and deer.

This project showcases the creativity and skill of fourth-grade students through string art. The students created intricate designs of snowmen and snowflakes using string on a colored background. The snowman design features a top hat, facial features, and buttons, all crafted with string. The snowflake designs are equally impressive, displaying complex geometric patterns. This project highlights the students' ability to create detailed and visually appealing artwork using simple materials. The process involved outlining the design on the background and then using string to fill in the details, resulting in stunning winter-themed art pieces.

Individual Winter Projects

Mosaic of a Snowman with Christmas Trees
Mosaic of a Snowman with Christmas Trees

This kindergarten project was easy enough for the little ones. Students created a mosaic art piece featuring a large snowman made from pieces of white paper. Black paper pieces were used for the hat, eyes, buttons, and mouth, while a red paper scarf added a pop of color. Surrounding the snowman were various Christmas trees made from green paper, decorated with colorful pieces of paper. This project not only introduced young children to the concept of mosaics but also allowed them to practice their fine motor skills and creativity.

Northern Lights
Northern Lights

This project beautifully captures the Northern Lights using a unique technique. Students first drew their designs on black construction paper using chalk to create the colorful lights. Once the drawings were complete, they painted over the chalk with a mixture of sugar water, which helped set the chalk and give the artwork a luminous, glossy effect. The result is a stunning representation of the Northern Lights, with vibrant colors and sparkling details that make the scenes come to life. This project not only teaches students about a natural phenomenon but also allows them to experiment with different art mediums and techniques.
