Description
Need no prep, Spring art projects for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th graders? Imagine these umbrellas in your hallway with a writing prompt. The step by step drawing tutorial and PowerPoint also makes perfect 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. Moreover, boost their confidence and creativity.
And, it’ll help cash-strapped teachers like you craft an umbrella art project using only markers. Yes, you can watercolor paint with markers! This first day of Spring activity includes an umbrella 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 Spring art lessons like this umbrella activity helps. Finally keep all kids engaged!

I left this for my students to complete with a sub! It required minimal prep from me and I heard about how fun it was for weeks- my students asked when we could do another one!

This was a perfect art activity for my students when I had a sub! Easy to follow instructions and the kids loved it!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I left this as an activity for sub plans and it went great. They read Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs and then completed the writing and umbrella craft.
