No bingo daubers? No problem! Check out how we did this lesson with kindergarten before I had bingo daubers!
Here is a little look at the printing plates created with stars in the background. This was apart of my shape making stations! Details on that here.
This Paul Klee/Mary Blair-inspired shape lesson was apart of a rotating stations that I did with my students. For my first thru fourth grade, my students rotated from station to station making a variety of shape-inspired art. These castles were one of the stations. The following art class, we added color and designs to these castles. You can check them out here!
Looking to dive into a little printing? This lesson is one I do with my kindergarten students but kids of all ages have enjoyed it! All you need are some foam stickers and a large foam shape for the background. I found these hearts at the dollar store but I've also used foam stars too!

I also did a variation of this lesson with my older students as they learned about shape and radial symmetry! You can check out the lesson and video here.
You could also take it in a totally different direction by covering the collagraph with foil and doing marker prints! This type of printing is always one the kids love! Details here.
After students are finished printing with their plates, the plates can be turned into some super cool metal art! You can check out that process here.
If you are interested in doing elements of art stations in your art room, I made a video to walk you and your students through the process. You can find it here.
During 2020, I did a series of videos on robots...that all feature the element of art of SHAPE. This first one is all about drawing robots and using shapes. You can find that video here.

Collage is the perfect way to introduce students to shape! You can find the video lesson for this robot collage project here.I always love doing collagraphs with my students. Start hoarding those cereal and snack boxes as that cardboard is thin and easy to cut. These can be created by doing crayon rubbings as I did here or you could use brayers and printing ink. Find the video lesson here.
