Welcome to Primary Art, home to my favorite art lessons. I am an elementary school art teacher, chronicling my favorite art lessons. I hope to bring ideas to other art teachers, parents, home school teachers, and artistic children. Here you will find a catalog of lessons for grades kindergarten through 5, as well as other art-room related stuff! Thank you for visiting!

Fifth Grade Snowy Mountains
Students dyed white paper by scattering tissue paper squares and painting over them with water. The following week, students peeled off the tissue paper to reveal the newly dyed paper beneath! We used this for our sky.
Students used crayon resist to create the snow on the watercolor mountains. Blue watercolor was used for shadows, and large black permanent marker for the trees.
