❤️ Take the guesswork out of teaching art,
❤️ Avoid endless hours of research,
❤️ Avoid the epic fails that result from not having the time to test the lesson or media yourself before teaching it.
I’ve done it all for you and used this lesson with my own students, in Kindergarten - 2nd grades.
❤️ why should you trust my lessons?
I am both a general ed classroom teacher and currently practising as a Visual Art and Digital Media specialist educator, teaching students from ages 4-12, at a primary school. I do this every day, just like you!
❤️ How will this resource help busy teachers, who are nervous about teaching art?
No worries - I’ve got you covered.
This lesson comes as a full colour PDF teacher guide of 33+ slides. All project steps are clearly explained and photographed, from start to finish, giving you the confidence to deliver a quality visual art lesson to your students, as you share on your large screen.
❤️ All the materials & skills are also clearly listed for you. It’s like having an art specialist with you in your classroom.
The PDF slides are intentionally designed in landscape orientation, to share with your students. This extra visual support will prove useful, particularly to young learners, and will also save your from having to repeat the same instructions, over and over again.

Encourage students along the way, to follow choice options and create their unique artwork, while being guided by the information on the slides.
⏰ How long will this project take to finish?

❤️ So what is special about this resource?
SUNRISE SAILBOATS is NOT a superficial art or craft option. As a specialist in this field, I write lessons that encourage deeper, cross-curricular learning and make meaningful connections to other subject areas. This Is:
- a drawing, painting & collage tutorial that also teaches colour/color, line, shape & form
- Build sequencing and fine motor skills
- explores concepts of size, space, shapes and line (Math)
- Explores Our Place & Culture (Where We Are in Place & Time).
This lesson plan can be the perfect companion art project for students inquiring into:
✏️ The Theory of Visual Art
✏️ Art elements
✏️ Seasons, play, exploration or forces & motion
✏️ Where We Are in Place & Time (IB PYP)
✏️ How The World Works.
Students can express their unique ideas through personal choices and modifications, while working through the guided project. Pause the presentation in places to discuss next steps with students, check understanding and explore potential student responses or modifications, bringing personal creative ideas to the tutorial. This addresses the Viewing & Responding to artwork objectives in a purposeful way.
