Description
Need Chinese New Year activities for your bulletin board? Imagine these Chinese fan drawings in your hallway with a writing prompt. The step by step drawing tutorial and PowerPoint also makes perfect no prep, emergency art sub plans for elementary art and general ed teachers.
A fun roll a dice game, ‘you pick’ worksheet, and digital spinners helps kids choose patterns. And, boost their confidence and creativity.
And, it’ll help cash-strapped teachers like you plan Lunar New Year projects using only markers. Yes, you can watercolor paint with markers! This Chinese New Year art lesson includes a paper fan template for easy drawing.
Can I tell you a secret? It’s hard to get kids writing in ELA. When they’re not invested in it, they can’t connect with what they’re writing about. Mic drop! Incorporating creative Lunar New Year activities like this Chinese fan project helps. Finally keep all kids engaged!

WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Awesome resource and a beautiful display when finished. I purchased it alongside the Chinese lanterns and have students a coffee between the two for their poetry unit. Really nicely designed.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great activity! My students enjoyed it and got quite creative. The fans look great on our bulletin board.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A great activity for Chinese New Year Art. Students loved creating their own fans and were extremely engaged when using the dice to help "choose" each pattern for the different sections. We used watercolours to paint them and they turned out beautifully! Great resource!
