Use the slides below for a lesson on colors and the color wheel.

Click the 3 dots on the bottom left of the slideshow to show full screen.

December 3rd

• Students used AI last time (before Thanksgiving) to create a “disguised turkey”. 
• They need to login to Clever and click on Google Classroom.
• This time students will create their own superhero that is an animal.
• Example of what to put in the generate box is: “koala wearing a superhero costume with a cape and a mask”. 

I suggest showing the slideshow in full screen mode. Click on the 3 dots in the lower left and then full screen.

Extra Prep

1. Use this for any of the classes that are listed as “extra prep” on the schedule.
2. Go to Art Hub for Kids and choose a drawing video that is appropriate for the grade level.
3. Have students get a clipboard from up front, a blank paper from their supply bin at their table, and a pencil.
4. Come back to the carpet.
5. Play and pause video as needed for students to draw.
6. Students raise their pencils when done with each step.
7. When the drawing part is done, ask students for suggestions for other things they could add (horizon line/ground, background, other elements).
8. When done, students return clipboards and go back to their desks to color with colored pencils or crayons.
9. Markers are sometimes good for these, but I notice kids color more sloppily with them than crayons or colored pencils.
