Ideas for classroom art projects for AUCTION?

12 years 7 months ago #158142 by Annie
Another year, each class had a Broadway play for the theme. Our Pre-K had "Stomp." We made a video of all the kids doing different noises: banging on garbage cans, bouncing basketballs, spinning plastic tubes, sweeping with pushbrooms. Anything we could dig up at Lowes, really! We even posed them for a picture. They all had on jeans and white t-shirts with bandanas on their heads and shop rags hanging out of their pockets. They were posed on the trash cans and ladders and stuff from the video.

Debbie-
we did a similar thing. Our classroom basket theme was "Gift of Health." We had our kids lay in the shapes of the letters and spelled "EAT YOUR VEGGIES." We had to take each letter as an individual picture (my husband happens to be a graphic designer so he could put it all together). Then we printed and framed on a canvas which we were lucky enough to get donated. It was the highest class project that year.

there is soooo much you can do......birdbaths decorated with mosaic or handmade tiles, holiday items do well like tree skirts and advent calendars, dogpillow decorated with hand drawn pictures of dogs, any ceramic piece(cake platters with 4 plates, serving platter, teapot with a pair of cups (you can use porcelin paint and inexpensive glazed pieces) decorated by the kids, class portraits printed on canvas and ready to hang, recipe book with a decorated bowl, a book with drawings and stories by the students, a book with pic and drawing "what I want to be when I grow up". you could have each child knot a 4 X 4 square and conect them all together,

this sounds like a really neat, and different project.
What size was the table?

Debbie-
I love this idea! And $4,600 is amazing. You don't by any chance have any photos of the piece to share do you?

Several years ago for our school gala, our class project was to have the children lay on the ground in the shape of the ABC's. We took the pictures from above and then matted each letter and had the whole thing framed. It sold for $4600. It really was fun and super creative. You can also spell out words or the name of your school or something different instead of just the ABC's. For example, it took 3 children to make the letter "A." one on each side (head to head) stretched out with their arms by their sides and one child in the middle. They can bend their legs to fit. We also had the kids dress in the same color - dark blue shirt and blue jeans and we took their shoes off.
