Let's break down all the fantastic elements of this assignment that will make it an invaluable part of your teaching toolkit.

1. Christmas-Themed Bellringers 🎄

Start each class with a quick, holiday-themed drawing exercise! These bellringers are perfect for getting students in the creative mindset while focusing on key art elements and principles.

These activities are short, engaging, and designed to be completed in just a few minutes, making them perfect for bellringers or warm-up exercises.


2. Famous Artist/Movement Extension Activity 🎨➡️🖌️

With a bonus extention; students can dive deeper into art history by connecting their work with famous artists or movements. This extension activity includes:

  • Research: Students explore a relevant artist or movement, like Gustav Klimt, Cubism, or Impressionism.
  • Comparison: They compare their original drawing with the artist’s style, noting similarities and differences.
  • Recreation: Students then recreate their bellringer drawing in the style of the artist or movement they researched, gaining hands-on experience with new techniques.
  • Reflection: Finally, they write a brief reflection on what they learned through the process.

This extension activity enriches students' understanding of art history and styles, allowing them to see how their work fits into a broader artistic context.


3. Critical Thinking Questions 🧠

To push your students' understanding even further, we’ve included higher-order thinking questions. These questions challenge students to think deeply about their design decisions, the impact of art elements and principles, and how their work can be interpreted or expanded.

Examples of questions include:

  • Why did you choose certain colors or shapes for your design?
  • How could you reinterpret your design in a different medium?
  • What elements of your drawing convey the story or mood you intended?

These questions are perfect for sparking class discussions and encouraging students to articulate their creative process.


4. Teacher's Note ✉️

We’ve also provided a detailed note explaining how to use these bellringers in your classroom. This note includes tips on how to integrate the activities seamlessly into your routine, the benefits for students, and suggestions for using the drawings as portfolio pieces or discussion starters.
