Painting of an Abstract Face
If your students seem to be drawing smaller and smaller every day, and erasing their paper to death while they are at it, try this abstract face drawing project. The tutorial instructs that lines must touch the edge of the paper so everyone will have a drawing that fills the entire sheet. That means there are all kinds of closed spaces that can have pattern added, and lots of different colors on top.
You don’t have to create it with crayons and watercolor (although that is my favorite combo), you could finish it with markers or tempera (scroll down to see some examples). The point is that it will force students to make an unconventional drawing, and most likely result in something very different from their usual approach to drawing a face.
This was one of my all time favorite classroom projects, and worked as well for 5th graders as it did for kinders.
