WHAT'S INCLUDED
Can I be honest with you? Art history can sometimes be boring for kids. There, I said it. Teaching about artists and cultures doesn’t have to be a snoozer, though!
I’ve designed 3 different ways for students to attempt these Black History Month arts and crafts. All will engage kids to create! Choose which way works best for your classes:
- Roll a dice handouts to add randomness to your student’s artwork
- “You Pick” art worksheets for kids to choose their own elements
- Digital spinner wheels, so kids can randomly pick elements and you can integrate technology in the art room
- Printable dice template in case you have no dice
- Step-by-step picture directions to guide students through the art process
- Drawing practice worksheets, for kids who want to sketch out their ideas
- Cultural art history handouts, leveled for both elementary and middle school students accordingly, so you don’t need to research
- “Big Ideas” reflection worksheets where students write about their art process
- Self-assessment worksheet so kids can think about how they performed during the project
- Art grading rubric which assesses expectations, craftsmanship, work habits, creativity, and clean-up
- “I CAN” Statements aligned to the Studio Habits of Mind to use during instruction or post on your bulletin board
- Art exit tickets with quick, thought-provoking prompts
- Art history coloring pages to keep kids inspired by African art outside of the art room

WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My students loved these activities! They were a great, hands on way for my students to learn during Black history month.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My students loved the simplicity of these projects, yet they were colorful and had choice in design. I am definitely going to use this again next year.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
What a beautifully comprehensive resource this was! I used it in collaboration with African folk tales (such as Anansi tales) in library for one week of African American History Month. For my youngest students I just let them use the beautiful, detailed coloring sheets. For the older students I let them draw their own designs and do the different crafting elements. They all enjoyed the activities and it made an awesome hallway artwork display once we had all four components added. Thank you!
