Healthy Eating "Pop Art" Coloring Pages | Sheets for Fruits and Vegetables

What educators are saying
Description
Health Lessons using my interactive coloring sheets with fruits and vegetables. This set of “pop art” coloring sheets features a variety of fruits and vegetables and would be a great accompaniment to lessons on nutrition, healthy eating, or farming. Or, for that matter, anything else that you could think of!
As an art teacher, artist, and lover of all things “artsy,” I am a big proponent of “art for art’s sake.” My “pop art” interactive coloring sheets are designed such that they can be used any time in your classroom for the sake of making art.
However, I am a teacher, so I understand how hard-pressed classroom teachers are for time. You might not feel like you can give up precious lesson time to let the kids “color.” In that case, I suggest using these interactive sheets as writing prompts. For example, after completing the coloring sheet for the apple, you could ask, “Why do you think they say, ‘An apple a day keeps the doctor away.’?”
And these are not just ordinary coloring sheets. As one of my Instagram followers said:
"I found that my 5th/6th graders come to me and, because of the focus on testing, never played with color or design or patterns. Your products give them that opportunity, and I’ve seen so much improvement in their attention to detail as well as noticing patterns, lines, etc. It’s so much more than 'just coloring.'" ~E.D.
Students spend a lot of thought and consideration when deciding where the patterns will go in each design. Students also have to color small details, which improves their fine motor skills, which help with many things--handwriting being one example. If your students were to make several of these (along with writings), they would have a beautiful portfolio at the end of the year!
I have thrown in two bonus coloring sheets that already have the patterns filled in. This allows you some room for flexibility with students who might otherwise struggle to add the patterns themselves.
Testing is a part of life, as we know. So use these to start the brain in the morning before testing, or use them when students finish early, so they have something creative to do after testing. I’ve even had teachers comment that these interactive coloring sheets are great to use with students when one-on-one conferencing is necessary to keep the other students engaged and busy.
