With our younger class, we started the duck stamp project. We began the lesson by teaching them about ducks, their habitats, and anatomy. Then we gave them packets included fun activities about ducks.
After this, they got to draw their own ducks and created their own duck habitats.
It’s easy to forget that kids learn best when they are having fun, and teaching through art can do just that. This is just one of many reasons why arts education is so important!
