BRIGHT IDEAS

WINTER SNOWFLAKES - TAKE TWO!
keep cutting out snowflakes and string them as a mobile!

ARTIST WORKSTATION AND ARTIST PORTFOLIO
This Bright Idea works in any kind of student or workshop environment.

ARTIST'S AND THEIR BIRTHDAYS
A great way for students to learn about master artists is for them to celebrate their birthdays!

WINTER SNOWFLAKES
This is an activity for both big and little kids, so have fun!

PUT YOUR HEART INTO IT
Perfect for Valentine’s Day, take a look at how artist Jim Dine transforms a simple image into bold and colorful paintings and drawings!

IT'S WHAT COUNTS
This activity is one of my favorites! Each month here at the Greenleaf Way Studio we select an object and a container and students are invited to explore what they see and estimate how many of that chosen object is in the container.
