Three,Two, One....GO!

Starting a blog is a scary thing. Not that I am literally frightened...it's the commitment! GASP! 
My plan is to write here when I add a new lesson to my TPT store or have other thoughts that simply must be shared.
So here goes!

Today I uploaded a no-prep easy for everyone lesson on pattern.
Print, copy, handout to students and bam! With a few directions they are ready to go! INSPIRATION: This Native American art lesson was inspired by the book Thanks to the Animals by Allen Sockabasin (A Passamaquoddy Storyteller). It tells the story of a winter accident where the animals are the heroes! Students can use the story for inspiration to create a winter scene! They will explore how patterns surround us, and how to use them for inspiration in art!
Classroom teachers as well as art teachers can use this lesson, no prep! Just make copies!

The lesson is self-guided and is easy to put away and take out as needed. I have often used this type of lesson for early finishers! You know who I'm talking about! It important to keep them engaged with a project that is easy for them to pick up where they left off. It is engaging and easy to build upon. They can add colored pencil or other mediums as well. Older students will find success with quality fine point markers. I love the Micron markers! But students can also use what they have on hand! 

Check it out, here is the link:

    Hello there!! 
    I am a retired art teacher with over 30 years of teaching experience. I have worked as a K-8 art teacher at Native American schools located in South Dakota, Michigan and Wisconsin. My career has led me to creating many culturally sensitive art lessons to meet the needs of my students. I saw a need to make them available to others and joined TPT. My goal is to help other teachers create cultural bridges. I love creating these lessons and helping teachers make meaningful connections to Indigenous Peoples. You will find many Native Authored picture books used in my resources as inspiration and focus activities. Native authored books will bring first person voices into your program while combining art and literature. I continue to create lessons as more and more amazing books are published! I hope you find a lesson that will build a bridge in your classroom and beyond!
