Sixth grade collage

This is the first year our students are using sketchbooks in art class. The first project we do is to give unique character to them.

We talk about the three parts of collage: Background, Focal point, and embellishments.

We have tons of collage materials in the art room they can use to create. One requirement is to put their name on the front in some way.

There were no two sketchbook designs alike!

The second day we got out the finishing touches. Puff Paint, ribbon, rubber stamps, paper money or cards were some of the choices.
