Team Sparkle recently introduced a new art curriculum within The Sparklers’ Club membership. It’s a complete art curriculum for elementary students that combine the Elements of Art & The Principles of Design. We released twelve bundles within this curriculum. The first bundle is Line & Pattern.
Note: If you’re a Sparkler, login to the private Sparklers website to view the FULL EPIC Curriculum Bundles
Each week on my Deep Space Sparkle Facebook Page, I go live and show you how to teach your little ones the particular element.
The first tutorial in our series CONNECTING WITH THE ELEMENTS- How to teach the Elements & Principles of Art is LINE & PATTERN…
Line is one of the most basic elements of art that sets the foundation for art making. Teaching children about line empowers them how simple lines can turn into shapes and eventually into advanced compositions.
A subject that they may have thought to be too difficult to draw, such as a clipper ship, all of a sudden becomes doable. What an exciting experience for children to have in the art room!
This is why beginning the school year with an art project devoted to line and how to use it, can help to set the foundation for a successful year.
I like to pair LINE projects with PATTERN elements. They go together like peas and carrots.
In this video that I shared with my Facebook audience, I demonstrate a couple of strategies you can use to help teach a beginner and a more advanced student.

For some reason i am unable to view items such as videos from your site on my school computer. I feel like I have waited my membership.
Hi Mary…The Sparklers Club membership content is available through our private Sparklers-only website.
Here is the URL: https://www.deepspacesparkle.com/tmc/
The video in this free post links to Facebook. You can watch the instructional art tutorial from any mobile device, desktop computer or tablet. Some schools do not allow facebook to be accessed at schools. If this is the case, then I would watch the video when you are not at school. This video is not a part of your membership….it’s totally free and meant for anyone who is interested in learning more about teaching art.
Any videos that are a part of your membership is available only through the private website.
Let us know if you have any trouble logging into the site!
Best,
patty
Is there a way to access the Elements of Art Video without Facebook?
Yes. You can watch all but the Line & Pattern via the blog.
Thank you! I tutor a group of great homeschool kids and this is just what we needed! I can always depend on you to provide an easy-to-implement lesson plan! The results are consistently amazing.

Hello, I am hard of hearing, and some of my students are hard of hearing or deaf. Is it possible for you to add closed captioning to the future videos? Thank you either way! I appreciate all of the valuable lessons and resources you all have shared with us. – Sara
Hi Sara…it’s hard to add close captions to Facebook Lives because they are quite lengthy. they are also meant for the teacher to learn from. BUT, we are trying to add more and more videos with close captions. We offered a few on our IGTV channel. Have you seen those?
Thanks for the input. Its always good to know how to serve better.
I’m going to try this lesson with my first and second graders. First I’m going to scaffold it by having the students practice some different types of lines straight, curved, spiral, dotted, etc. and add a few more pictures. This really looks like a good lesson
I would love this resource
LINES
EPIC
Love the activity sheets for my students.
Hi there
Thanks so much for the free handouts. They are great and straight forward. I am an art teacher in the primary school and i am starting a lunch club this week. I will be focusing on the elements of Art to do something different with the children. Thanks again
I am interested in joining your organization…just got to consider the money.
Handout will not download. Says its damaged?
Thanks for your email.
Try again and if that doesn’t work, you can reach out to support@deepspacesparkle.com. Also make sure you have an updated PDF reader like Adobe. Updating your computer helps too.
Thank you. I love your lessons because they look good and are easy to follow.

Very helpful

I love the idea of this way of teaching art……am excited to try it with a 5 year old home schooled youngster!!!
THe program seems interesting that I can use at my school

Would love to have this pdf to teach line & pattern to my kids.
I’m a Volenteer art teacher at an elementary school (where my own children went) that has no art program due to funding.
In the past 4years (with no training)I have learned a lot From all the little blessings the teachers bring to explore their imaginations, Relive stress,
Make a mess and have fun!
I would like to thank you for your ideas and the time and energy it takes to do your posts
Thank you I LOVE HOW EASY YOU MAKE EVERYTHING
I will be teaching 4th grade ART and I have never taught art so I need all the help you can give me.
Neat! Lines are so important as precursors to many fine motor skills.
Thank you for this I look forward to using it in my classroom
J’aime beaucoup votre site !
interesting
is this for grade 1?

I have a membership so when I try to download it, I get prompted to log in and go to the site. When I go there, I cannot find this hand out. I would like to have lessons for teaching all the elements of art bundled for primary. Does this exist already? Thanks

Hi Michelle. The Sparkle Facebook group is a PRIVATE Deep Space Sparkle Members’ Club group. You must be a paying member (Sparkler!) of The Sparkler’s Club for access. Our membership will open again in January. You can join the waitlist here: https://deepspacesparkle.lpages.co/the-sparklers-club-waitlist/
I just discovered your website . I am about to teach the kindergarten students online about elements of design. I will start with lines and patterns. I am excited to see where this takes us because we are not physically together and all the students have different materials. Some do not even have paper. So will try to use some of your ideas and alter them based on what student have at hand. We like to use objects (we call them loose parts) found in nature or around the house.
Thanks for the activity!
fun
Pls share pdf
It’s available to you. Just click the box, add your name and email and we’ll send it to you.
I have been looking for something like this for a while to use with my Grade 2 students!

I’d love to learn more about pattern art for preschoolers age 4 to 6 years older. Thank you.
Hi Mindy! Our Primerry and DSS lessons are geared toward children ages 5-12. While we don’t have lesson plans specifically for Preschoolers, many teachers use the Kinder lessons and modify them. Or use our printables and allow them to color in and have fun!
Lovely lesson idea
