Sketchbook activities to introduce young artists to some of the concepts of

• • line
  • color
  • shape
  • value
  • form
  • space
  • texture  

What You Get:

• 6 pages of instructions
• 3 pages of 1/2 sheet activities (2-3 per page)
• 6 pages of full sheet activities
• A version of this resource in a separate file with the British spelling of colour and favourite.

A total of 15 pages

For these art lessons, I’ve designed 3 pages that can be cut apart and pasted into a sketchbook with activities and prompts for other sketchbook drawings and experimentation.  I’ve also included the full-sheet version of the sketchbook activities and a version with the British spelling of colour and favourite.

These activities can be taught all at once or one by one as a precursor to various other art lessons throughout the school year.  When I used them, I used  1/2 page for each art class at the beginning of the year.  I then had my students do an Op Art lesson to put the elements into practice to create an optional illusion.  You can see all my Op Art Lessons here.
