Veterans day elementary art

This week, and the beginning of the next, we're working on patriotic works of art, to celebrate Veterans Day! We are a big military town, and we want to support our local veterans and country! 4th & 5th worked on their shading in this American flag project, 1st and 2nd grade worked on their drawing skills, sketching out a bald eagle with me, and 3rd is drawing the Art Project for Kids, head of the statue of liberty surrounded by fireworks! They're doing a great job so far! Check out our art…

A collaborative blog by Pre K and Kindergarten specialists. Child growth and development, information, free printables.

Students also discussed the meaning of Memorial Day and what they feel the flag symbolizes.

FREE collaborative American flag poster and many other unique Veterans' Day activities for kids...thank you notes, agamographs, coloring sheets, and more!

Work together to create a show-stopping piece of class artwork as part of your Veterans Day topic! This is the perfect class project to encourage collaboration and creativity and a great way for your students to show their respect for veterans.

If you do a search for Remembrance Day art projects, you’ll find that there is a lot that has students creating poppy art. While we love to have our students create poppies, we wanted to have art projects that go beyond the poppy. We put together this blog post to share some Remembrance Day art projects that are perfect for upper elementary students because they take a bit more time and care, and are still beautiful additions to our Remembrance Day art displays.

Our Second Graders made these cute stars for their music program. Click HERE to get the printable for the Veterans from making learning fun. We used scrapbook paper to create the camo look. When the students finished, we tore pieces of paper to create red, white and blue textured letters.
