When parents come into school, it’s great to get them involved. Running a collaborative art activity can foster a sense of creativity and community. The simple idea of spelling out the name of your school, town or simply the word ‘Welcome’ in collage has lots of mileage. It’s all recycled materials, too.
This download includes:
A A4/lettersize alphabet ready to print and draw around.
A good example letter ‘R’ to help raise the standard of what is produced.
Instructions which are full of good advice to help you prepare and run the event.
I hope you’ve enjoyed this Open Day activity. There are many more collage art lessons on The Arty Teacher website.
Sarah Crowther is The Arty Teacher. She is a high school art teacher in the North West of England. She strives to share her enthusiasm for art by providing art teachers around the globe with high-quality resources and by sharing her expertise through this blog.
I set up The Arty Teacher because I have a passion for my subject that I want to share with other art teachers around the world.
I have been a high school art teacher for over 20 years, so I understand what it’s like to be in front of a class of students, often with very different abilities and attitudes.
I wanted to develop resources that would help teachers to bring out the best in every student in every class. I also wanted to free-up staff from time-consuming lesson preparation to let them focus instead on delivering exciting, motivating, dynamic lessons, supported by excellent resources.
