Bring a little seasonal fun into your classroom with this no-prep Thanksgiving art lesson. Students will design their own cornucopia while also practicing key literacy skills, making it a perfect cross-curricular activity. It’s quick to set up, fun to teach, and great for mini-lessons, sub plans, or homeschool art time. The finished pieces make a beautiful hallway or classroom display!
This activity is also included in the Year-Long Art Curriculum Bundle, giving you engaging lessons for the entire school year.
The Art & Roll format adds an interactive, game-like element that keeps students excited and focused—even reluctant artists join in. Many teachers love using these lessons with substitute teachers because students stay engaged and on task.

Why Hand-Drawn Resources Matter
