Playful Creativity with a Valentine’s Day Heart Dog!

Introduction:

Welcome to Snyder’s Sunshine Art Studio, where creativity meets education! This Valentine’s Day, I’m thrilled to present an engaging art activity that introduces students to the wonderful world of colors and artistry. Our Valentine’s Day Heart Dog is more than just a cut-and-paste project. It’s an experience designed to teach the concepts of value and tertiary colors in a fun and heartwarming way.

Emphasis on Dogs:

I understand the special place dogs hold in the hearts of students. Therefore that’s why I centered this activity around a lovable canine companion. Additionally, the Valentine’s Day Heart Dog project allows students to explore the art of arranging shapes to develop their very own Valentine’s Day-loving pet. Through this creative process, students not only learn about color theory but also develop problem-solving skills, resulting in the proud creation of their unique animal companions.

Ease of Instruction and Engagement:

At Snyder’s Sunshine Art Studio, we believe that learning should be both educational and enjoyable. Our resource is meticulously crafted for easy instruction and high student engagement. Begin with the included worksheet to introduce or review the concepts of value and tertiary colors. Progress to the application of these concepts by coloring the shapes. Then witness student success as they combine shapes to bring their Valentine’s Day Heart Dogs to life. This hands-on experience allows their creativity to bloom in an exciting and supportive environment.

Comprehensive Resource Includes:

• Visual Arts Standards
• Model of quality instruction (objective, essential questions, etc.)
• Worksheet featuring value and tertiary colors

Dogs and Love – A Perfect Pairing:

As the saying goes, “Dogs and Love go together with wonderful joy!” Also I’ve seamlessly connected the heart symbol to a love for pets and animals.
