PERFECT FOR 1ST GRADE ART, HOMESCHOOL, SUB PLANS, ELEMENTS OF ART LESSONS, AND CROSS-CURRICULAR LEARNING

This resource works beautifully for 1st grade art lessons, homeschool art, sub plans, elements of art color lessons, and cross-curricular art and literacy activities. Students explore how artists use color to show ideas, feelings, mood, and visual interest while creating a bright flower artwork based on the color wheel.

It is more than just a simple flower art project because students are exploring painting, drawing, color vocabulary, color mixing, the color wheel, fine motor practice, reading comprehension, spelling, writing, reflection, and creative thinking all in one resource. You are not just handing students paint and hoping they figure out color theory on their own. You have a fuller Grade 1 art lesson that feels supported, organized, and meaningful.
