Summer Drawing Challenge 2025 is available!!
Open to all students ENTERING grades 3, 4 and 5 in the fall of 2025.
3-5 Summer Drawing Challenge
Summer is a great time to work on our drawing skills as we visit new places and see new things. I would like to challenge any students who are willing to complete 10 drawings (one per week) during the summer months. These drawings can be any size, but must be COMPLETE, with a subject and a background. Fill the page! Color is optional. Those who complete this challenge can have their work displayed at the beginning of the year (if they want to) and will get their name on my “Wall of Fame” to go up in the art room next year! This is for students who will be going into grades 3-5.
Here are the 10 drawing assignments:
1. Have someone pose for you for a portrait (shoulders and head and background).
2. Draw the front of your house or apartment building including trees, bushes, etc.
3. Find a favorite toy and draw it slowly with detail.
4. Make a drawing that shows happiness. It cannot be a person’s face. Show it with line, color, dark and light, etc.
5. Make a drawing that shows sadness. It cannot be a person’s face. Show it with line, color, dark and light, etc.
6. Draw a scene from a place you have visited this summer.
7. Draw what you imagine a city built by dogs and for dogs would look like.
8. Draw what you imagine your house will look like in the future.
9. Draw a poster for your favorite TV show or video game.
10. Draw your CHOICE!
These are the 10 drawings required for the challenge. But, if you want to do more drawings than these 10, feel free! Draw whatever you want and bring them in to share.
Turn in all of your drawings to me with your name in the bottom corner of each drawing during the first week of school.
HAVE A GREAT SUMMER!!
