Pop Art Heart - Art Lesson | Art Sub Plans

$8.00

Brighten up your pop art unit with this Pop Art Heart activity. If your students are over basic coloring pages (and you’re over worksheets that all look the same), this lesson gives them a clear structure and plenty of room to create artwork that feels personal and original.

Designed for any classroom and any experience level, this resource is also a strong pick for sub plans. The directions are simple and step-by-step, so a substitute can run the lesson with minimal prep on your end. Print, set out materials, and you’re ready.

What’s included

  • Non-editable PDF

  • Game sheet

  • Reflection sheets

  • Coloring page

  • Finished example

  • Writing activities

Students practice the elements of art through the included art-and-roll style games, making this a good fit for mini-lessons, centers, early finishers, or a full class period.

Prep

Very little to none: print the student pages, gather the listed materials, and start.

Why some pages are hand-drawn

Not everything in this resource is digitally illustrated on purpose. When students only see polished digital examples, many assume their work should look “perfect,” which can shut them down fast. Hand-drawn visuals help lower the pressure, making students more willing to try, take risks, and stay engaged—even if their drawing skills are still developing.
