Stay at Home Lesson #17: Collage with Newspaper and Magazines

Collage is a great way to get creating with materials that you have at home. You will need glue, scissors, and an assortment of papers. Use whatever you have: newspapers, magazines, and recycled papers such as food boxes work great as well. 

For my collages, I created imaginary places and fantasy lands.

Kindergarten Owl Babies

Kindergarten students read Owl Babies and created their own painted papers to use for collage. 

1st Gr Paper Weaving: Castles

Students learned how to weave with paper. Then we looked at examples of castles and added architectural details to our castles. Thank you #anotherartteacher for the fun idea!

Kindergarten Eric Carle Collage

Students watched Picture Maker which is a video where Eric Carle demonstrates his collage-making process for his books. Then we made "papers" just like Eric Carle and then students created collages from the papers that they made.
