Below are lesson plans, worksheets, and materials from my time as an art teacher. Please feel free to use them as long as you credit me (Sarah Pepin). You just need to make a copy. Most of these are targeted loosely for the Texas standards for high school art, and a lot of them have a Spanish translation underneath the English. Some of the links might not work, but hopefully they do.

Ant-ART-ica Project.docxArtlantis - Like Ant-ART-ica, but underwater.
Artlantis Project.docxFinal Art Project for Art 1 - They had different choices for prompts and I had done a bad job about having students work on huge pieces so this was a big deal.
