Indigenous Artists Inspired Art Projects | Paper

• eight different art projects (each one can usually be completed within a few hours from start to the end of clean-up).
• complete lesson plans with step-by-step instructions with modifications to differentiate for your students (or your available supplies).
  
• projects that use art materials found in most classrooms like Tempera paint, watercolour paint, black markers, construction paper, watercolour paper, soap, cardstock, pencil crayons and paintbrushes.
• photographs of student examples.
  
• reflection pages for students in English and French.
• instructions to minimize prep work and clean up.
• art projects designed for the "not-an-art-teacher" generalist (meaning they don't require you to have a lot of specialized art skills).
• inspired works based on the artwork of artists chosen from all over Canada. While the projects are inspired by different artists, this resource does not specifically share information about the different artists or their pieces of art. We have included links to their websites.
• projects inspired by Alex Janvier, Christi Belcourt, George Littlechild, Bill Reid, Dana Standinghorn, Jason Carter, Benjamin Chee Chee and Leah Dorian
