What to Do in your Art Room in November

Welcome to November, the gateway to the holiday season.

This isone of those months that has a way of flying by. Your art room is starting to get a bit disrupted with parent-teacher conferences and the well-earned (and my personal favorite holiday) Thanksgiving week. 

While November is a great time to lean into themes of gratitude, community and seasonal change, no doubt you are also thinking about the holiday sprint that will begin the Monday morning after Thanksgiving break. 

To keep the beginning of November calm and creative, here’s a guide you can download to help you:

– Mark key dates on your Art Calendar to get ahead of the holiday bustle

– Seasonal art project ideas (with links!) you can use right away

– A practical checklist to help keep the month on track

– A peek ahead at what’s coming in December

Remember, there’s no pressure to fit it all in. Pick the themes and projects that feel right for your classroom, save the rest for another time and enjoy.

A Complete Year of Seasonal Art Lessons

Bringing the seasons and holidays into your art room shouldn’t mean putting the rest of your curriculum on hold.
