Mugs & Saucers
5th grade students created the illusion of a form by drawing a mug with saucer using a horizon line to separate the tablecloth from the wallpaper background.
Robots
2nd graders used simple shapes to draw robots, then they outlined their marks and filled in the entire background with color.
Stain Glass Hearts
3rd graders distinguished between warm and cool colors by creating a stain glass heart with either the heart having warm colors and a cool colored background or the heart showing cool colors with a warm colored background.
Heart Art
5th grade students had creative freedom to design artwork with the main requirement being it had to contain at least one heart shape.
Heart Person
Kindergartners assembled a heart person by first tracing and cutting out four heart shapes. Then they folded four pink strips of paper accordion style and glued everything onto a large heart body. Lines for sunglasses and facial features were drawn with markers and special heart stickers used for the shades.
Hands
1st grade students traced their hand in the center of their paper. They then out lined this shape, repeating this to create a radiating pattern off the paper. Then each section was filled in with a solid color.
Hand Holding Heart Art Project
Hand Holding Heart Art Project: Positive Words
and Kindness Activity for Elementary Students
and Kindness Activity for Elementary Students
Looking for a meaningful art project that encourages kindness, positive thinking, and self-expression?
This Hand Holding Heart art project is one of my favorite elementary art lessons because it combines creativity with social-emotional learning. Students create a colorful hand holding a heart while filling the artwork with positive words and encouraging messages.
The project provides students with an opportunity to reflect on kindness, character traits, and positive affirmations while creating a visually engaging piece of artwork.
Students began by tracing and drawing a hand holding a heart shape. They then filled the heart and background with positive words, encouraging messages, and descriptive character traits. Once the drawings were complete, students used color to emphasize their designs and create contrast throughout the artwork.
This lesson encourages students to think about:
❤️ Kindness
❤️ Positive Words
❤️ Character Education
❤️ Self-Esteem
❤️ Social-Emotional Learning
❤️ Encouragement and Respect
The finished projects not only create a beautiful display but also serve as a reminder of the positive impact words can have on ourselves and others.
This project is perfect for:
🎨 Elementary Art
🎨 SEL Activities
🎨 Kindness Week
🎨 Valentine's Day Art
🎨 Character Education Lessons
🎨 Positive Behavior Activities
🎨 Classroom Community Building
